Hi I burped my baby even during night feeds because my baby had mild silent reflux. Even now at 9.5 months some times I will find she puke a bit of milk out if I do not burp her at night. If she can't burp at least hold baby in a 45 degrees position for 15 mins. I understand that it may be hard at night especially when they may wake up after burping but for better digestion and prevention of choking on puke I think it is worth the effort.
