Why does my baby move so much while nursing?

Question

This has been happening for a couple of days now. He is 11 weeks and starting to fidget so much! I take him off and burp him in case he has an air bubble and he burps but then he keeps doing it. Sometimes he yanks my nipple. 
Did my supply drop? My boobs feel flabby.
Is this normal.
He moves alot!

Answer

Normal and unfortunately they only squirm more as the get older. My second is 8 months and likes to kick her legs while nursing. Also your boobs won’t feel hard/full when your milk regulates. I think as they get older they are more aware of things and start squirming around. If he’s having enough wet diapers then you have plenty of milk.

Answer

My 3 month old does that and I remember my first did the same thing around that age. I just contributed it to stimulation. They are getting to that age that everything is interesting

Answer

My girl is 12 weeks, she does the same.
Latches, takes a few gulps, pops off looks around then come back.
Drives me wild 😂
I need to put little blinders on her like a horse 😹😹

Answer

Mine started around three months. He just wants to go and play also...
He doesn't wiggle during nighttime feeds, but he for sure is in a hurry to go somewhere during day.

Answer

My 11 week old does what you're describing when he has to poo and he's nursing to help him get his digestive track moving. But this is something he's pretty much always done his whole life, just thought I'd share in case it's helpful!
