Do you need
to be patted in order to burp? Of course not!
Your baby doesn’t either; in fact, many babies simply
will not burp if they are being patted because they are either curled in a
ball, crying or clenching down in anticipation of the pat trapping the air in the belly.
If you have a gassy baby you may have done the typical routine of
changing your diet, changing the baby’s formula, giving the baby gas drops or
have tried bottle after bottle to find the one that is least likely to make the
baby gassy! A baby will be less gassy if
he is burped completely and thoroughly with each feeding… keep in mind if it doesn’t come out
as a burp it's going to come out as a toot. In this
episode of The Calm baby RN, I discuss the best method of burping a baby and
why efficient burping is so important…. TheCalmBabyRN Episode 2
