Frequency/length of feedings for BF babies with reflux?

How many times a day and for how long are you nursing your reflux baby? I know this question is asked a lot, but I wanted to ask specifically about the reflux babies.

DS2 is 3 months old tomorrow (13 weeks) and he nurses 9-11 times a day for 18 minutes on average, but it ranges from 10-25 minutes. This seems to be a lot based on other BF babies his age, but I'm guessing it's because he pukes up a lot still.

    William averages 9 to 15 minutes per feeding.

    Today I can't get him to go longer than 6, but occasionally he will go as long as 18to 20. He generally spits up some after each feeding, but only very occasionally does he really let go and lose most of what he ate.

    ETA: he eats every 2.5 to 3 goes during the day and every 5 or so at night.

    ETA: changed hyphens to 'to' because mobile cant use simple symbols.
