Q. #askanexpert My 3 months old is an exclusive breast pumped bottle feed baby. at nights when we feed her, after 30 ml, we hold her upright for 10 mins, and when the milk is over, we hold her for 20 mins upright. many a times, she doesn't burp/rather difficulty in burping that's when she starts getting restless. and then she removes little milk from her mouth. what do we do in that case so that she easily burps in her sleep.
