Hiccups in babies are very common, but many parents see their babies always burping and worry that they will feel uncomfortable. Therefore, they want to help their babies relieve this hiccup phenomenon, but they don't know how to help them relieve it. Therefore, let's learn together how to burp babies?
Baby hiccups can generally be relieved by burping, such as gently tapping the back with your hand to expel organs, which can quickly improve the symptoms of hiccups. If a child has hiccups, it may be caused by cold air during breastfeeding, and it is also related to indigestion. After feeding the child, it is necessary to expel excess air from the stomach to avoid hiccups. When feeding, it is also important to pay attention to the amount and avoid eating too much at once.
Hiccup is caused by the baby swallowing too much air while breastfeeding, resulting in bloating. Therefore, after each feeding session, parents should stand up and hold their child to burp. The duration of burping should be between 5 to 10 minutes. You can also gently massage the child's abdomen to help them exhale, which can effectively prevent hiccups and milk overflow. If this child frequently burps and experiences decreased appetite, weight loss, or frequent vomiting, then they should go to the hospital for further examination.
