How To Burp A Baby?

Place the baby upright against your chest or over your shoulder

Support the baby’s head and neck with one hand

Gently pat or rub the baby’s back with an open hand

Try gentle back pats for 5–10 minutes

If needed, switch positions and repeat gentle patting

Keep the baby’s tummy supported and avoid pressing on the belly

Pause and check if the baby has burped; stop when done

If the baby seems uncomfortable, reduce force and try a different position

If vomiting is forceful, frequent, or the baby has trouble breathing, seek medical care
