Burp after feeding

Hi mummies, i have some concern about burping my baby after feed. She will always take quite some time to burp after feeding. It can be as long as 20-30 mins and can be quite tiring. Is it ok if she doesn't burp on some feeds?

Carry her over your shoulder and gently pat her back a few times while stroking upwards. Stand or take a walk while doing it and she will eventually burp a loud one. If baby falls asleep while feeding at times, I will usually let her sleep. Otherwise, keep baby upright for at least 20mins to prevent colic. Patience is key :)
