Bonding with baby?

Heather

I've got a 6 week old and lately, I noticed she doesn't really want to snuggle with me on my chest like she used to. She doesn't look at me much, and stares around at everything else. It makes me feel like maybe I'm not doing something right and that we aren't bonding like we should. On top of that, she's been crying and generally fussy a whole lot for the past few days.

We were feeding her expressed milk until this week, and are working to get her back to breastfeeding, so I'm not sure if this is the reason or if it's something else.

Also, how do you bond/play with your baby around this age? When she's awake I feel like I don't know what to do with her other than chat and make silly faces or give her toes and belly a raspberry.

Please help. I'm getting so sad about this. 😓
