Reflux and NUK baby bottle

Reflux, also known as posseting, spitting up or medically as gastro-oesophageal reflux (GOR), is a common thing in babies. This is when babies bring up the milk that they have just swallowed during or shortly after feeding. Although it is natural and normal for a mother to worry about it, reflux commonly occurs in babes and usually passes by the time the baby gets to a year old as the digestive system matures.
Whether your baby is breastfed or formula fed, they can all experience reflux. Reflux is different from vomiting which involves the baby’s muscles forcefully contracting. Reflux occurs effortlessly where the baby just spits up the milk which comes up through his food pipe.
