Baby fussy? Try these 3 positions. 💪🏽
#1 Lay baby flat then upright on shoulder. Use firm pressure in upper back blades to burp...repeat lay flat/upright as needed. 90% of the time this gets the hidden burp out.
#2 Baby facing out, on left side. Gently giggle/rock/sway. Can also add a gentle pat.
#3 Baby held at roughly a 45 degree angle, your hand under their butt and beck, gently rocking them up and down.
