If he didnt' get one out within 30-45 seconds, I just stopped trying. He usually got one out pretty fast. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-burp-your-breastfed-baby#post-140256 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 11:14:40 +0000 Mrs. Bee 140256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i did when olive was a newborn, but i haven't in quite some time now. they definitely burp more when taking bottles than when breastfeeding. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-burp-your-breastfed-baby#post-140246 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 11:07:07 +0000 T.H.O.U. 140246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We tried to burp when she was a newborn. She would kinda sit up and burp but often she didn't need to. If she really had to burp she would just let it out, often while still latched on! </p> <p>Now, we don't burp her at all. I think its one of the beautiful things about breastfeeding! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-burp-your-breastfed-baby#post-139869 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 08:57:18 +0000 Mrs. Pen 139869@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do, my son still gets huge burps. Sometimes he won't sleep or will wake up if he has a big burp inside. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-burp-your-breastfed-baby#post-139860 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 08:55:15 +0000 purrpletulips 139860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did but don't recall doing it regularly. My understanding is that when drinking from a bottle (regardless of content) babies ingest more air and therefore need to burp more often then if nursing at the breast. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-burp-your-breastfed-baby#post-139763 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 08:06:18 +0000 mrs. wagon 139763@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We always burped after each breast. Sometimes we'd sit there for 10 mins walloping on his back until we got a burp out of him. Gas was a big problem (he'd have painful gas and cry and cry until he burped or farted) so we were REALLY careful about burping until he learned how to pass gas on his own! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-burp-your-breastfed-baby#post-139760 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 08:04:31 +0000 pelikila 139760@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Technically no, after breastfeeding you shouldn't need to burp but I always did and always got a burp out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-burp-your-breastfed-baby#post-139744 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 07:26:22 +0000 His Barista 139744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do just to make sure. : ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-burp-your-breastfed-baby#post-139734 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 06:49:14 +0000 chopsuey 139734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to burp my LO after nursing her. I stopped early on though. She usually burps on her own :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-burp-your-breastfed-baby#post-139731 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 06:00:44 +0000 kgbee 139731@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son gulps down breast milk, and therefore we burp him whenever he starts wiggling on the boob. It's necessary maybe 1 out of 5 times. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-burp-your-breastfed-baby#post-138985 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 17:16:39 +0000 IcebergMom 138985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, not really. She never seems to need it and she's not uncomfortable. Then again she's never been a spit-upper. What goes down there stays... No escape. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-burp-your-breastfed-baby#post-138944 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 16:18:59 +0000 Rubies 138944@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is almost 9months and I still burp her. I've been told that I don't have to but I still do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-burp-your-breastfed-baby#post-138942 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 16:17:22 +0000 Maysprout 138942@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i burped my little girl for the first 3 months or so. She really seemed to need it at least for the first month but after that we probably only did it occasionally. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-burp-your-breastfed-baby#post-138934 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 16:10:04 +0000 Mrsbells 138934@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just wondering if this is really necessary, I'm currently breastfeeding and then supplementing with formula and pumped breast milk. I've noticed that she lets out great big burps when drinking formula or breastmilk from a bottle, but when I breastfeed her she rarely ever burps and even then it will be a teeny burp. Does she need to be burped after being breastfed? </p>
