For new parents, there are really a lot of challenges to infant care from changing diapers to having to stay awake at irregular intervals. However, one aspect of child care which may surprise you even further is burping. Sometimes it can bother you to no end to see what’s bugging your child after feeding him/her.

Burping is all about that extra rush of air which babies tend to swallow while feeding. If this one is left unchecked, it can lead to throwing up and crankiness. In order to solve this, the trick is to gently pat the baby’s back. As a contingency, you need to put a bib near the baby’s mouth because they may give off wet burp once in a while.

There are many ways in which to try to make your child burp. Try sitting upright and holding him against your chest or you can hold the baby in your lap. You can also try making him/her lay on his/her belly.

Repetition is key and soon enough you won’t have any problems solving your baby’s crankiness due to failure to burp.
