Burp it up!!

All the parents and babies have an important task after feeding: BURP. One has to make sure the baby burps right after the feed. It helps the baby to sleep better and the baby also feels better/lighter. Parents need to help the baby in burping as she/he cant sit uptil 5-6months. How to make sure the baby burps :-

• You as a Mother/Father should uphold the child such that the baby’s body is supported by you and the head can rest on your shoulder. In initial months your baby’s neck does not support her/his head so your hand(palm) should help her by holding the neck from behind but very delicately at the same time. The other hand should support the rest of the body. Baby burps quite quickly if you hold her properly.
• I strongly believe what you eat when you are exclusively breastfeeding does reflect in your milk and hence in baby's digestion. In fact the poops color also changes.Try eating spinach and checkout your LO's poop that day J it will change. So eat healthy and light food in the first month after delivery , it not only help you but also the baby to digest the milk. Avoid food like nuts, red and black beans etc.

The baby should not lie down immediately after taking the feed even if she/he has slept while taking the feed. But instead take her gently and uphold her with her head resting on your shoulder and wait till she/he burps or for 10-15minutes before you lie her/him down on the bed again.

Happy mommying
