I am worried about my 15 days old breastfeed new born not burping after feeding. I keep him straight for 15 20 minutes but he does not burp so I put him to sleep on his side. Ia it okay for newborns to not burp?

Hi, it is a common question that gets asked in practice. It is ok for newborn babies to not burp. If the baby does not burp after 10 minutes, you can put them to sleep. No problems:) warm regards.
