hi welcome,
poor feeding and symptoms like GERD will due to the indigestion only.
normally GERD WILL BE FINE AFTER I YEAR. IN INFANTS.
give him fluids more
intake of milk products to be reduced along with creams and chocolates.
give very light food which will easy digest and get rid of them
also test for worm infection ,if it is there clear that one
thanking you

welcome to healthcaremagic
if your baby has deep breathing spells better you consult paediatrician and get tests done to rule out any underlying pathology
at 15 months your baby is having other foods besides milk
give small frequent feeds and burping should be done in between and after feed
