Are you BF? My first bub didn't burp much really, I did hold him upright most of the time and occasionally he would randomly burp but I never had to 'burp' him as such

@Chloe no mines formula fed. First week he burped fine but this second week he’s been so difficult to burp!

Oh I'm sorry I can't give much advice then, does he seem uncomfortable? I know a few of my friends who FF used to put baby gaviscon or infacol in the formula, maybe ask the GP? Or maybe try a different brand?

@Anna thank you for this! Will defo try this next time!

@Chloe got infacol so will try this and see how I get on, thank you x x

No problem, it's all just trial and error really until we start to get the hang of feeding and things, and it can take bubs a while to adjust, you may be able to get a non-dairy alternative or something if your bub isn't getting on with the normal formulas but deffo speak to your GP if things don't improve with the infacol. I think you can go to the drop in clinics too to get some advice, maybe ask your health visitor? Best of luck!x
