What should I do if the baby often hiccups?

Patient's question:

Please ask the doctor: My daughter was just born half a month ago, and she often burps after eating milk. I am very anxious! It's uncomfortable for adults to burp, and I think the child feels the same way, just that she can't express it. Please ask the doctor what I should do?

Doctor's answer:

Babbling is a normal physiological phenomenon. The abdominal muscles are not fully developed. My child is the same. Drinking a few sips of milk or water can help you burp. My child is only 44 days old and burps. I asked the doctor. The doctor said that the specific reason for burping has not yet been discovered, but burping may not be as uncomfortable as adults imagine. Don't be nervous. You can also try feeding in small amounts more frequently to reduce the frequency of your baby's burping. During feeding, you can also give a little warm water or distract your baby in other ways to improve your baby's burping symptoms.
