Can I put sleepy baby down if she hasn’t burped?

sometimes i have to burp my baby for 30-45 mins until she finally burps.

I sit with my baby upright for at least 30 mins after a feed, if he doesn't burp straight away he usually does within the 30 mins.

You don’t need to burp them unless you put them down and they seem uncomfortable and can’t settle, there’s no evidence to support that not burping them will cause them to choke x

Yes, you can. I’ve just put mine down as she wouldn’t burp either. She doesn’t always despite my best efforts. Her wind comes out the other end 😅 if she does need to burp she will wriggle and moan. Worst that’s ever happened is a bit of milk came out on the next to me sheet. Put baby down and get some sleep ☺️

I don't burp my little one at night, it's a quick 5 minute feed then back down to sleep, I'd she's wriggly or looks uncomfortable I wind her at night but it's very rare. Get some sleep mumma!x

The midwife said to me last week if she’s not burped in 5 mins don’t worry! X

I try to burp after feed and if nothing comes up in 5 mins I put him straight to bed no problem. If later he is uncomfortable with wind I hear him squirming, sit him up and give him a few pats on the back - but now that he is almost 9 weeks this rarely is required.

Your baby will be fine. Babies won’t choke on their spit up when sleeping on their back anyway. However, they don’t always spit up if they aren’t burped. I don’t burp my baby in the middle of the night. She sleepy feeds and gets put right back into her bassinet. No spit up either

Agree with what everyone else has said, babies require less burping the older they get so really wouldn’t worry. It’ll probably come out the other end if my baby is anything to go by!

Oh sometimes I do. I still sit upright with him for ages but I mean if baby has no gas he has no gas.

I don’t burp in the middle of the night. He has a very quick 8/10 min feed and then he is back down in his next to me. He is quite vocal when he has bad wind and there is nothing like that in the night. He does do some impressive man farts in the morning so I assume it’s gone out that way.

at night I often feed, if no immediate burps I put her down then nip to the loo… if she is uncomfortable I’ll try to burp her again. I find sometimes lying her back it down helps the difficult bubbles come up

After 5 mins don't worry! It will eventually come out other end x

My LO struggles to burp so much he'll cry until he falls asleep after a feed and does a massive poo once he wakes up, so if they don't pass through burp they pass through gas im guessing?!
