Burping a baby is truly an art.
There’s no one way to do it, no one technique that always work.
Every baby is different and has different needs. And every parent will have a slightly different touch.
(In your household there’s probably one parent who just seems to be awesome at it for whatever reason).
But regardless, burping your baby can sometimes be a time consuming and frustrating task. So it’s fair to ask when you can stop burping your baby, or around what age to stop burping your baby.
I remember the days of mixing formula extremely well.
We used to make big jugs of formula at night that would give us plenty for the next day.
The process was simple, but treacherous: Fill the jug with the right amount of water, carefully count out the scoops of formula, stir thoroughly.
When it comes to food, baby’s earliest days are, quite frankly, a bit of a nightmare
Breastfeeding is an enormously difficult and tiring job for mom. And formula feeding has plenty of headaches as well.
(You haven’t lived until you’ve forgotten how many scoops of formula you added to an entire jug of the mixture and had to dump the whole thing and start over.)
Poopy diapers are pretty gross. This isn’t exactly breaking news.
But for some parents, they’re REALLY, really gross, and especially hard to deal with.
It sounds like a dramatic excuse, but some people truly have intense nausea or severe gag reflexes and just can’t stomach a face full of baby stink for the time it takes to change a diaper.
When you’re getting the nursery ready for a new baby, everything revolves around one thing:
The crib!
It’s the centerpiece of the room, and it’s pretty much your baby’s home for the next couple of months, at the very least.
Car seat safety seems like a simple thing.
Buy a car seat that fits your kid, buckle them in, and whala! You’re all set.
Right?
