I stopped needing to around 4 months when she was rollnig.. cause usually she would end up burping on her own once she flipped on her belly.. she still sometimes needs to be burped or will burp if i'm holding her and patting her back to help get her to sleep.. but she defniitely doens't need it after every feedig like she used to...

My son is 4 1/2 months old and I still burp him once after each bottle. Many times he will burp before I even have a chance to pat his back, as soon as he is upright it will all come out. Their bodies usually begin expelling gas around 4-6 months on it's own. I will probably give up burping soon since he isn't having much problems doing it on his own.

I honestly don't remember. I just waited til they burped on their own. Probably about 3 or 4 months, but breast fed babies tend to burp less than bottle fed and I'm a breast feeder.

When I noticed that they could burp on their own usually at about 4-5 mos; keep in mind you need to watch the amount of spit up. If there's much spit up it means there's still a lot of air in there and they aren't getting it all out.
