I'm having less burps, i still feel mini ones but they don't always come out, does this mean my burping is finally getting better?

Burps or hiccups?: a burp is brought on by excess gas in the stomach..although most kids learn how to burp voluntarily. So it can be a nervous 'tic'..or recurrent stimulation of the stomach, or excess gas. a hiccup is an involuntary brief contraction of the diaphragm muscle and closure of the glottis, and anything that stimulates this can cause a hiccup. In either case, sounds like you are getting better.
