Put the baby on your shoulder and rub her back. You can also put her face down on your lap, and rub her back gently. You need not wait too long for the baby to burp. Some babies do not swallow much air while feeding and so may not burp at all. However, if the baby does not burp after 2 minutes, you can put her on her stomach, if she is awake. If you are lying down and feeding the baby during the night, you need not sit up to burp the baby. You can make the baby sit up next to you using your body for support. 0
