👶💡 Did you know? Your child’s “pagdighay” or pagsusuka might be more than just normal reflux.

Gastroesophageal Reflux (GER) is common in infants and children—but when it becomes frequent and causes discomfort, it may already be GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease).

🔍 Watch out for these signs:
• Frequent vomiting or regurgitation
• Irritability during or after feeding
• Poor weight gain
• Chronic cough or wheezing

🩺 Why it happens:
The lower esophageal sphincter (LES) is still immature, allowing stomach contents to flow back into the esophagus.

❤️ What parents can do:
• Feed smaller, more frequent meals
• Keep baby upright after feeding
• Avoid overfeeding
• Seek medical advice if symptoms persist

📚 Early awareness leads to better care. Let’s protect our little ones from complications!

Dora the Aspiration
Not every cough is just a cough—sometimes, it’s a sign of aspiration. Think of it like food or
liquid taking a wrong turn and ending up in the lungs instead of the stomach. Sounds harmless?
Think again. Over time, this sneaky detour can lead to serious infections like pneumonia or even
breathing problems. And the worst part? It can happen silently—no choking, no warning, just
trouble brewing under the surface.
In this video, we’ll track down what aspiration is, why it’s dangerous, and how to stop it in its
tracks. Because when it comes to swallowing, it’s not just about getting food down—it’s about
making sure it doesn’t go exploring where it shouldn’t!
