Yes, it is possible for a baby's teething to cause reflux. Acetaminophen is recommended as the best treatment for pain or discomfort associated with teething. If reflux is due to teething discomfort, administering acetaminophen as needed is safe at the recommended doses. Other tips to help with reflux include feeding smaller amounts more frequently, burping the baby more often, and avoiding laying them down too soon after feeding. If reflux becomes more frequent or persists for weeks, or if the baby is not gaining weight, it is important to consult a doctor for further evaluation.
