After babies are born, the only food they can eat is breast milk. Although most mothers will breastfeed their children, there are still some mothers who cannot breastfeed their children due to special reasons. At this time, babies can only eat formula milk. So, do babies have to burp when they eat formula?
Babies need to burp whether they are breastfed or formula fed, which can effectively prevent them from vomiting milk. And when feeding their children formula, parents need to give them some warm water between two feedings to meet their water needs, otherwise it may cause dehydration over time.
Generally speaking, babies who are breastfed do not need to be fed water because breast milk has already provided enough water for the child, so there is no need to breastfeed. For babies who are breastfed, in addition to feeding them water, parents must also pay attention to their baby's bowel movements. Generally, babies who are breastfed will have fewer bowel movements.
If you want to prevent your child from spitting out milk, besides burping, the interval between breastfeeding should not be too long. Otherwise, if the child is hungry and anxious, breastfeeding will be very fast, which will inhale a lot of air. This not only makes the baby prone to bloating and other symptoms, but also makes it particularly easy to vomit milk. Therefore, the interval between feeding the baby should be shorter.
