Do breastfed babies get wind?
Breastfed babies tend to get fewer problems with wind than those on bottle feeds. This is because they can control the flow of milk at the breast and so suck at a slower pace, swallowing less air with the milk. They are also more likely to have smaller and more frequent feeds and may be fed in an upright position, both of which can reduce wind. Yet, even breastfed babies will often need to be burped, especially if they are fast feeders and/or your milk flows particularly quickly.
