He sleeps in my lap after breastfeed, I tried to burp him while he is sleeping but he sleeps on my shoulder.but as soon as I tried to put him in bed,he kept awake and jerked, sometimes cried. I don't understand his problem. recently he groans often and cries before passing gas and stool and urine. dr. said he has GERD.
