Hello dear,welcome to healthcare magic forum.
Try breastfeeding in sitting position only,and do burping after that.never breastfeed when supine in bed .This will help most of the times. If not,kindly see your pediatrician for a detailed examination and evaluation.
Hope you will find this answer useful. Thank you.
