A. You should always burp your baby and hold in the upright position for few minutes before lying him down. If he is asleep after feeding, put him on your shoulders and gently pat on the back few times until he burps. If u think he is spitting up too much try reducing his feed and feed him at frequent intervals. While laying the baby keep him in an elevated position with his head higher than the legs. Laying him on the left side will also help. Don't lay down ur baby to sleep without burping. If the baby doesn't burp after trying for long, keep the baby in an upright position on ur shoulders for few minutes atleast twenty minutes to half an hour. Your baby should be peeing anywhere between six to ten times a day which means the baby is taking feeds properly. If not then make sure the baby is latching and taking feeds well or if ur milk supply is sufficient. Also there should be a gradual weight gain. Keep a check on these factors.
