Make sure your baby's clothing and diaper aren't too tight, and don't put their tummy over your shoulder when you burp them. Your baby probably doesn't need to burp just then. If you don't get a burp within a few minutes, don't worry. That way, if there's any air, it'll come up before even more food is layered on top of it. If your baby takes a natural pause during a feeding, take the opportunity to burp them before giving them more food. Read our advice on choosing nipples and bottles. On the other hand, if the hole's too large, your baby will be gagging and gulping because the fluid will come at them too quickly. If your baby's drinking formula or pumped breast milk from a bottle, make sure the hole in the nipple isn't too small, which will frustrate them and make them swallow air. If your baby's distracted or frantic, they're more likely to swallow air along with breast milk or formula. Minimize noise and other distractions, and try not to let your baby get too hungry before you start a feeding. Feeding them while they're slouched (sitting in a car seat, for example) doesn't give the formula or breast milk a straight path to their tummy.
It's no wonder your little one creates so much laundry. The muscles at the bottom of your baby's esophagus, which control whether food is coming or going, may still be getting up to speed. Babies take in a lot of nourishment in relation to their size, and some of them really like to eat, so sometimes they become overfilled and, well, overflow.Ī newborn's digestive system isn't fully developed, either.
