Burps

I was wondering if there is an alternate way to getting the burps out of a little one? During the night we all want to go back to bed but we seem to be having problems with the burps not coming up. It is frustrating, as bub is asleep but wakes after a few minutes because she is uncomfortable :(
Any tips?
Thanks :)

Sit on edge of couch/chair. Sit baby on your knee leaning forward slightly. Support his head with one hand. Jiggle your knee and pat/rub their back. Stand clear of burp followthrough :)

Got shown this trick by a midwife, absolutely worked a treat on my burpy little DD#2.

Often if I cant get a burp up, I lay DD down on the change table for a minute or two, then when I sit her up, the burp comes up by itself.
