In infants and young children, food easily stagnates in the stomach for a long time and creates favorable conditions for causing gastroesophageal reflux in children.

Infantile gastroesophageal reflux is a common phenomenon in the first months of a child's life. Symptoms of vomiting will begin at 2 months, become more severe from the 4th month onwards and gradually decrease after 14 months. Up to 2/3 of young children experience this condition, however, most will recover by the age of 1.

Vomiting after eating and belching are common in children, especially infants, but most will go away on their own after the baby is 1 year old. If this condition persists for a longer period of time, accompanied by other symptoms and complications, parents should be aware of gastroesophageal reflux.
