My baby has recently started to stiffen his legs and body when I get ready to feed him a bottle or during the bottle (not after) He does have reflux but not bad at all anymore. Does anyone know why he does this?
Should we contact his pediatrician?

My baby does that when he’s really hungry. He’d cry until I put the bottle in his mouth then he stiffens when I put the bottle in his mouth until about an ounce or 2. I just chalked it up to him being hungry and excited.

My baby does that during the feed and I unlatch him to burp him. After couple burps he usually continues to finish his feed. My baby also has reflux.

my baby doesn’t have reflux but she does this when she is gassy

My baby does this when she’s gassy/ about to poop. I rub her tummy: do tummy time/ put her in her bouncer to try and distract her
