I’m a mum and my clever trick will get your baby to burp every time – I couldn’t do without it
AS a mum, there’s nothing worse than seeing your baby in discomfort.
Whether it’s from being over-tired, hungry, or gassy, all you want to do is make them feel better.
That’s why one mum has shared her clever trick to get babies to instantly burp, and she claims it works every time.
Meredith Rayes posted the video to her TikTok account, mrsstringy, where it went viral with over four million views.
She wrote in the caption: “Goodbye back pats.
“This works every time & makes her burp like a full-grown man.”

The mum demonstrated the hack in her video and said it was one of the best things she has learnt from TikTok.
She holds her daughter on her leg and presses her hand on her back to make sure her daughter has a straight posture.
The other hand goes under the baby’s chin to support their head and to open their airway.
She then holds the position for a few seconds before her daughter lets out an enormous burp, and the mum looks shocked by just how effective the burping hack was.
