Success after IF

Burping.

My girls are the world's stingiest burpers. ?If I have 30 minutes to do nothing but sit there with one of them and put a ton of effort into it, she MIGHT burp, but most often neither one of them gives anything up. ?So half the time I don't even bother (because I have my hands too full to have 30 minutes to try). ?Both our girls are really gassy, and one of them is extremely gassy, and I'm sure at least part of that is because they never want to burp. ?Am I being a bad mom, or is burping not that big of a deal? ?

Re: Burping.

  • eh.  sometimes i put big effort into getting avery to burp, sometimes not.  if she starts crying after eating and she hasn't burped, then i try again.

    the LC at our hospital said that people in other countries think Americans are nuts because we care so much about burping our babies.  i have no reference for that, though.
