When should I do gas massage on my baby? If I do it on a full stomach will she spit up, should it be on an empty stomach?

The best time for gas massage is when your baby has rested about half an hour after feeding and is calm and content. Massaging on an empty stomach might make your baby fussy and she won't benefit from the massage; right after feeding risks spit-up. The ideal flow: after feeding, burp her upright to release air, then once she's calm and rested (maybe 20-30 minutes later), do a gentle clockwise massage—this is safest and most effective.
