If your baby won't burp, try and try again. Try different positions. You can hold your baby over your shoulder. You can lean their face into your hand with a u0022Cu0022 hold around their chin (this is usually the best for newborns). Try different techniques. You can pat, rub in circular motions, and rub in upwards motions. When all else fails, lay baby down for some play time, then pick your baby up and try again in a few minutes. Tummy time often helps as well to get gas moving.
