Author of questionGuardian of a 4 yr 9 m old boy4 years agoA. I researched more about long hiccups in babies and found that it may be due to GERD or acid reflux. Also I have seen my baby is arching his back during breastfeeding, I initially thought it is just normal but today I found somewhere that it can be symptom of heartburn / GERD.
I'm already started taking care of proper interval between feeding sessions etc. But I think my baby needs some medicine to get relief.
Please suggest some medicine.
