It is normal for some babies to fall asleep before they have finished burping. If a baby falls asleep without burping, it is not usually a cause for concern. However, some babies may wake up later with discomfort or a full feeling in their stomach. In such cases, it is best to gently wake the baby and try to burp them before putting them back to sleep.
It is also possible for some babies to burp on their own while they are asleep. If the baby is breathing comfortably and showing no signs of discomfort, there is no need to wake them. However, if the baby seems uncomfortable or is making grunting noises, it may be necessary to wake them and burp them.
If a baby consistently falls asleep without burping and experiences discomfort, it may be helpful to adjust the feeding position or the frequency of feedings. It is also recommended to consult a pediatrician for further advice.
