I don’t burp baby after feeding. I keep baby in whatever feeding position she’s in for 5-10 mins then start burping. If after burping for 10 mins still no burp I just lay baby back to bed, awhile later I put her in tummy time position then she will burp on her own. Nope, didn’t swaddle while burping.

I usually keep in the feeding position for around 5-10 mins. Then lift baby up, usually they will burp alr. If not will try to burp for 10 mins. If still not burping. Then will lay baby on the left side incase he pukes milk out. Baby will start crying if he wants to burp then I will just continue the burping once he cries. And nope don’t swaddle when burping as recommended by lactation consultant.
