GERD (gastro-esophageal reflux disease) is seen in ~ 30% of infants. The majority 'out-grow' this nuisance of a disorder by age 8 months; however, a few will have it throughout toddlerhood. Usually diet manipulation and medications will mitigate the symptoms. GERD (gastro-esophageal reflux disease) is seen in ~ 30% of infants.
