A member asked:
Is there anyway to reduce air intake from a breastfeeding baby?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Breastfeeding: Very little air is swallowed when a baby is nursing. The air they swallow is more from when they cry. Or if you feel it is when the baby is nursing, see a lactation consultant to observe breastfeeding technique.
