Ok...I really thought burping a baby was pretty simple. I guess it is after a few tries but it just seems precarious whenever the baby hangs over my shoulder. At the hospital when Samantha was born, the nurses mostly advocated the "bulldoggy burp" method (www.ehow.com/how_51_burp-baby.html). I actually like this method since it's simpler and you can keep an eye on the baby while she's sitting on your lap. So far, though, the over-the-shoulder method (tried and tested by moms everywhere) seems to work best. The bottomline is you have to try all methods to get that gas out.
