our 4-month old cousin is diagnosed with gastroesophageal reflux. She spits up frequently after feedings and is irritable for about 1 hour after eating. At her last health check up, the practitioner mentioned that she is at risk for pneumonia. What would be the most likely cause for this
Due to the fact that she has frequent reflux she is more at risk for aspirating the formula or breast milk into her lungs which would lead to pneumonia.
