Throwing a fit during feedings
I imagine DS (8weeks) is a typical baby who hates to be burped and whenever I take away the bottle to burp him, he flips out until we resume feeding. usually by the end of the feeding, he is calm and seems satiated when we burp him before we put him down. lately he's still been super feisty and unsettled after we finish the feeding and needs his paci to calm down. could this mean he's still hungry? has anyone else had any experience with this?

I was going to say the same to try and solve the reason he is fussy after he's done feeding.
Also you may want to allow him to drink a little more before burping him or decrease the time between feedings. He may be so hungry by the time you are feeding him that he needs to drink more before taking away the bottle away to burp him. If you decrease the time between feedings he may not be as hungry and therefore not as fussy.

Re: Throwing a fit during feedings
Our ds would get very angry at middle burping around that time we just started burping at the end. Since he is sucking the paci he might be a little hungry after maybe give him another .5oz or oz

Re: Throwing a fit during feedings
I will definitely try both of these suggestions. Im think I just needed the reassurance to give it a shot. He's such a good baby otherwise so I want to try to make mealtime a happier experience for both of us

Re: Throwing a fit during feedings
My ped and the nurse saw me feeding dds and burping and both said no need tk burp til the end. We never did this bc my one dd had reflux. Around 2 mo my other dd would get distracted if we stopped to burp her so we just burped at the end and it worked.
