Does anyone else feel that air is trapped and they need to burp but can't?

I'm 5 weeks postop and now that I'm able to eat solid foods, I notice that I get this uncomfortable feeling of air being trapped in my new tummy. It feels like I need to burp but nothing will come up. I'm prety sure I'm eating slow enough and I'm chewing very well, but how can I keep this air from building up? It's soooo uncomfortable!
