This has probably been asked before, but....
My friend has a baby boy (3 weeks old)

She is struggling for ways to get him to bring his wind up. We've tried everything we can think of ...
Changing his bottle from tommee tippee to dr brown, infacol, co lactase, baby massage etc.

Can anyone suggest any other ideas that might work please?
TIA x

I had this problem, I used to sit baby sideways on my legs, with one hand under his chin and other hand supporting the back and head, and trying to keep him as upright as possible and gently rock him from side to side, it probably sounds weird but the health visitor showed me this and it usually worked.

@holyshitdude I'll tell her to give it a go, Thankyou ☺️

Tiger in a tree hold is good.

While sat on lap, head supported, gentle patting on the left side, under the armpit.

Gentle rocking from side to side and back and forth as above.

He will start getting better at burping with each week that passes.
