Regurgitation of feeds is common in new born baby, to prevent this burping (Dakar dilana) should be done.
After feeding keep baby on shoulder for 30 minutes then make baby lie down. this problem will not occur...
Next Steps
only provide breastfeeding no top feeds. visit a pediatrician if problem persist..

She needs to be burped after each feed . That is keep the baby upright over the shoulder supporting the baby ‘s head and lightly pat over the baby’s back till she brings up wind . It is very important that you do this after each feed . Do not give top feeds . Only breast milk till till 6 months of age . Not even water is required for the baby . Breast milk provides everything necessary for the baby
