Yep, have to fight her hands out of the way. She pulls her dummy out too 😅

@Hannah his doing the same too with his dummy, he will fall asleep and then start pushing it out and will cry he wants it x

Yep. I've resorted to putting something on the TV to distract him and peace is restored. Picking my battles and that is not one I have the brain power for! X

@Maddi feeds are taking so much longer now but I’m happy I’m not the only one xx

Can it be teething?

Same here, pushing himself away from me on breastfeeds during the day as he is to nosy and wants to look around and when i try bottle he does not drink much. I read that its normal as they become more aware of surroundings and less interested in feeds. We make up for it during evenings and at night at this point. Also allow enough time to pass so he is hungry and gets a full feed rather then the snacks every 1.5 hours haha

@Tea absolutely agree. It could be that he is more aware which would mean he is going through a growth sprout. Very often babies become fussy with eating and are cranky in general at this stage. This is very common between 4-6 months. I would just double check his mouth for signs of thrush.

Going through the same, I think it’s teething as he just plays around with the bottle teat. I’ve found he prefers his milk a bit colder than usual as I think it is a bit more soothing

Same. Her dad said maybe the flow is slow but I just upped her teat so I’m at a loss. I just let her do her and try to put it back as fast as I can

@Weronika just checked to make sure and mouth seems normal with no signs of infection. I think he is theeting as he chews on everything in sight and also would rather chew his dummy then suck it. We use tommee tippee natural start bottles, but he seems to like the mam ones better now. I also made fozen lollies from milk and he is partial to them

Yes I think mine because it's his teeth
