Question

My little just turned 7 months on the 28th of last month and this past week I’ve noticed that she has been nursing for 2 min tops and then done. She has been doing this for each feed and I am so confused as to why??? She has also been extra clingy and a bit more fussy as well as frequent night wakings to nurse! Is this some kind of sleep regression?! Any thoughts/ideas would be appreciated. TIA!

Answer

My daughter did this. At first she was grabbing her ear and I thought ear infection but the doctor said she was fine. Then she became cranky, didn’t want to sleep, wanted to be constantly held, would wake up every 2-3 hours at night to feed, and was fussy at the breast. Then I noticed one of her lower teeth was coming in and she kind of went back to normal. A couple days later she did it again. And her other lower tooth came too. So I’d say probably teething.

Answer

Sounds like teething could be causing her to want to nurse less and she’s trying to make up for lost calories at night. Maybe try something cold on her gums before nursing

Answer

It sounds like teething. I don't nurse but mine does not eat as much when he teethes, he just wants to snuggle all day and he wakes up in the middle of the night. (he normally sleeps through)

Answer

Us! She is so fussy! Wants to be kept busy all the time.  She only eats about 3 oz per bottle. Barely any purée or oatmeal when we try. Was sleeping 7:30-7:30 and now wakes up for a bottle anywhere between 12:30-3:30. She’ll be 8 months tomorrow! She is in her 6th leap so hoping we go back to normal once that’s over.
