Burping

I could be wrong as I’m a first time young mum but I breast feed and I was told breast fed babies get there own wind up because they control the milk flow unlike a bottle but don’t hold me to that my girls 10 days and she always burbs or trumps after each feeds or be sick a little xx

i hold her up straight, rub instead of pat her back (over my should or leg)

i've burped my sleeping baby countless times. maybe its just him but he doesnt wake up when i burp him. (i sit him up and hold under his chin and pat his back) hes 6 weeks

Does she do bottle or latch straight on? What the lactation lady told me when my bubs was in the nicu was that if they latch straight on there is no need to burp them but if through a bottle (doesnt matter if its breast or formula) they have to be burped

Honestly if my baby fell asleep without a burp I took it as a sign that she didn’t necessarily need to since she was comfy enough to doze off. If they’re uncomfortable they won’t fall asleep (usually).

If they are leaning on you slightly upright for like 10-20 minutes after eating that’s just as good as burping

Im breastfeeding too and my baby does the same her doc told me a happy spitter in ok and it’s more common with breastfed babies not to burp at frequently because they don’t take in as much air as a bottle fed baby

If she's sleeping, then she's happy and comfortable and doesn't need to burp

You’re having the same problem I am. Your baby could have silent reflux. I asked my son’s pediatrician about it- It will get better with age. For now try using Gas drops, or gripe water. If your daughter’s coughing a lot, or sounds congested, chokes sometimes, and her poop is sticky sometimes- It’s more than likely that it’s silent reflux. I wish you the best.
