Sarine Salama of MDLIVE answered:Prop the baby in a semi upright position, cradled in your arms. Hold the bottle at a slight angle and make sure that the nipple is completly filled with milk to decrease the amount of air the baby is intaking, thus decreasing gassy tummies!Prop the baby in a semi upright position, cradled in your arms.
