A. It may take a bit late for a few babies to burp and you can try different positions where you can make the baby sit with support to the face and gently massaging the back or putting the baby on the shoulder and if the baby still not doing it give a gap for sometime and try againWrite Your Answer Here

A. That’s Very normal with kids it is not necessary that every time when you try the child is definitely going to take a Baba so in this case I can only say when you are giving your child on the shoulder try to paint the back of your child gently massage it with a very light hand hopefully that will work
