for moms who breastfed.....

This may sound silly, but I'm a ftm. Im leaning towards breastfeeding but how do you know when you should burp your baby if you don't know how much they've had already?

Thanks. I'm going to check that out right now.

Breastfed babies don't get gas and reflux as bad as bottle babies (whether it's breast milk or formula, the bottle makes them gassier). But I would still try burping them when they pop off the boob.

The baby will stop when they are done. Always burp the baby, always.

There's a ton of useful information on the 25-34 forum about breastfeeding posted this morning. I just bumped it so you could go check it out without scrolling a ton!

Oh okay. Thank you.

You let them feed until they decide theyve finished snd dont generally need to burp them unless they look like they need it eg tense or red in the face
