A. Sometimes when you feed your child in the lying down position also can lead to this kind of a situation if you are not sure about it and once you should get a check with your paediatrician and explain them entire situation that happened and on that basis only they can help you withWrite Your Answer Here

Q. I feed my 2.5 month old baby in lying position at night. There is no burping as we both sleep during the feeding at night. At couple of days back she woke up in the middle of night as if she was choking on anything and she couldn’t get it out. I layed her on her side and patted a few times and she took a big burp. This incident happened last night too . She woke as if she was choking. I took her on my shoulder and tried to get her to burp but she couldn’t. After a long time she burped spitting some cough and milk. All this while when she didn’t burp I got really scared because of her unusual choking like behaviour. What am I doing wrong? Is feeding in a lying position wrong? Should I sit and feed at night too?
