At the lower end of food pipe near the junction with stomach there is a muscular valve which is weak at this age. Moreover the diet is mainly liquid at this age & the babies spend most time lying down all factors contributing to reflux.
Reflux is also more likely when babies stomach is squeezed from outside as happens when babies
cough, cry, or strain or are wearing a tight nappy.Also Overfeeding can aggravate reflux. It is common in infants but most grow out of it.
