Dream feeding and burping?!

[Dukechick]

We used to dream feed, but not so much anymore. Cameron doesn't burp when he's sleeping, and I don't want him to get a belly ache.

Do your LO's burp when they're asleep? Or do you just leave them??

I just tap Ruby gently on the back as I'm putting her down. Sometimes she does a little burp, usually not. They don't take much air in when dreamfeeding as they're so relaxed. Another tip to avoid wind is to not use a too-slow flowing teat which requires your LO to suck really hard.

we dreamfeed and sometimes if suspect connah has wind i do give him a tap on the back but he never wakes up, but most of the time he will go down without being burped x

I burp Freya after dreamfeeding, she always does a massive one before I put her down. She burps loads anyway though! I guess if your baby is not particularly windy, lol, it wouldn't be necessary. It takes me about 10 mins to feed her and about 20 to wind her sometimes when she's asleep, but nevermind. Sometimes she just does one straight away.

Freya can burp on her own as she sleeps on her front, so when she lifts herself up on her arms can make herself burp. Either that or she does just literally burp all the time!

I dont burp Molly when I dreamfeed and she normally goes down fine. If she wakes up and I think she has wind I will then burp her.

i dont even take luisa out of her cot to give her a dream feed as she wakes up.. so i never wind her..

i think once she did have wind after and it wakes her up.. she is such a light sleeper so if she stays asleep i know she is ok

i dont think that I have ever heard her burp in her sleep, but she has burped right when she wakes up before??

Sorry, I meant when we used to dreamfeed, I would pick him up to burp him, and he wouldn't do it. Oh well, we don't do it anymore..... sighhhh.....
