Understanding Baby Reflux: How to Help Your Little One Sleep Better

🌙 What Is Baby Reflux?
Many babies spit up after feeding, but for some, it becomes a regular, uncomfortable experience. Reflux (or gastroesophageal reflux) happens when milk flows back up from the stomach. It’s common, but can disrupt sleep and cause crying, discomfort, and frustration for both baby and parent.

👶 How Do I Know If My Baby Has Reflux?
Signs of reflux include:

• Frequent spitting up or vomiting after feeds

• Crying during or after feeding

• Arching their back or fussiness

• Poor sleep or frequent night waking

• Refusing to feed or feeding in small amounts

Always consult your GP or health visitor if you’re concerned.

🛏️ Why Sleep Positioning Matters
Lying flat after feeding can make reflux worse. While babies must always sleep on their backs for safety, gentle elevation can help reduce spit-up and discomfort. That’s where a reflux support pillow comes in — especially one that’s thoughtfully designed.

💡 Other Ways to Help With Reflux
Alongside using a reflux support pillow, you can try:

• Burping your baby more frequently during feeds

• Keeping them upright for 20–30 minutes after feeding

• Offering smaller, more frequent feeds

• Checking latch if breastfeeding

🚨 Safety First:
Always supervise your baby when using any incline support. The HuggieBear™ pillow is not intended for overnight or unsupervised sleep and should never replace a firm, flat sleep surface. Always follow safe sleep guidelines.
