Should i be burping my newborn baby at 1 week old ?
yes! The nurse at the hospital burped him in front of me before he was 24 hours old. By the time my baby was 2 weeks old i learned to burp him quick because he was screaming in pain regularly. After learning we haven’t had a colicky night since. Even if yours is fine now, start burping him at LEAST once per feeding, keep patting him until he does (or itsbeen 15 mins or more). Some burp better yhan others, but they all need to burp because they swallow air when they feed which can fill them up prematurely or cause them discomfort.
