Newborn won't burp!

My son is 2 weeks old and he used to burp just fine. It was almost instantaneously once you started that the gas would come up. Now, I’ll burp, bounce, swing and switch him every which way, and he just won’t burp! I know he’s got air too because I can hear it! I was already giving him mylicon before this for his gas (from the other end) and it helped beautifully. Now he’s miserable, and in true maternal nature… so am I. It’s so heartbreaking to watch him like that. I should add I express breast milk into bottles for him. I use Dr. Brown’s, and haven’t switched, except when we tried Nuk two times.

Answer #1

I’d call his Dr’s office and just ask if you should be concerned and get your questions answered…Take care !!

Answer #2

my son had reflux and a lot of of problems with gas funny enought I took him to the hospital ofter he was shoking and they said literally support his head put him upsidedown for a few seconds and repeat then continue burbing try as many times as needed it worked for me!

Answer #3
