Question

How do I burp my baby?

Answer

Some babies pause naturally to burp during a feed, but if your baby does not, wait until the end of the feed to burp them.

  • Hold your baby upright against your shoulder or sitting on your lap, or place them face down on your lap
  • Gently rub or pat their back
  • If there is no burp after a couple of minutes, they probably do not need one
