for how many months should one burp babies?

Question

my son is 3 months old and we don't know if we have to keep burpping him and for how long.

Answer 1

when the start burping themselves is usually when people stop, my son stopped around 3-4 months and he burps himself most of the time, ill burp him sometimes now if he seems like he has a tummy ache cuz he didnt burp, he's almost 6 months, but he does pretty good with burping himself

Answer 2

I burped my two sons until they started burping themselves...between 4 and 5 months. One day I sat my older son up from his bottle and he let out a HUGE belch. He did this for a couple months, then just stopped burping. :) My younger son was the same way.

Answer 3

Until he burps on his own. My son is 6 months and we still burp but only after he finishes his entire bottle.

Answer 4

I burpped mine until they were off the bottle. I took the bottle away at one year. I burped until I got a real good one out then stopped, a couple of minutes.

Answer 5

Good Question! I was wondering the same thing. But like the others say, when they start burping on there own. Its so frustrating isnt it, especially when they take a while to do it!

Answer 6

i stopped burping my son about that age. he just started burping on his own.

Answer 7

until he shows you that he can burp himself

Answer 8

If he's breastfed he probably doesn't need burped.
