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. Babies can be crying for many reasons like when they want to sleep, when they are hungry or tired, when they feel insecure and need some comfort or when there is a stomach pain or reflux or due to colic pain or when their clothes get wet due to frequent peeing or when they struggle to poop or pass gas or have cold or other illness that's bothering them. You can try to identify which is bothering ur baby and act accordingly
