Babies burp primarily to release air swallowed during feeding, which helps prevent discomfort and gas buildup in their small stomachs. Adults belch for similar reasons, as they also swallow air while eating or drinking, and belching helps expel this excess air. The terms "burp" and "belch" are often used interchangeably, but "burp" is more commonly associated with infants. Both actions serve to relieve pressure in the stomach and promote comfort.
