Not taking bottles.

Is anybody else's formula fed baby just not really Interested in feeding? Just in the last week my little boy has gone from feeding every 3 hours 7oz bottles to being fussy and sometimes having 3oz sometimes finishing the bottle. We're due to start weaning at the weekend when the high chair turns up so not sure if it's connected to that maybe. I'm a FTM for reference and worrying cos he hasn't fed this morning since 4am and it's not 10.30am!!!

My daughter is exactly the same. I think it means they are ready to drop that 4am feed so they are hungry when they wake up but I can’t my daughter back to sleep unless I feed her at 2/3/4am whenever she decides to wake up

My little one is the exact same. We’ve gone from 8.5oz every day 5 x a day to getting maybe 4oz if I’m lucky. I think it’s because he’s teething but it’s stresssssing me out! I don’t want him loosing weight 🙃 he also feeds 6:45pm and then his next one is the morning! He doesn’t have a 4am feed!

@Bianca-Jasmine I'm glad I'm not the only one. I've been freaking out today and my health visitor is rubbish and just tells me to start weaning like that will solve everything! X

@Astrid My LO is weaning. We started weaning 2 weeks ago and it’s only the past few days he’s started it!🥺 it’s horrible isn’t it!!

Oh my gosh same! No weaning yet

Mine was being fussy last week so we've upped the teat size and he's so efficient now!! So could be worth a try if you haven't already? Good luck with weaning! We've just started with purées and it's more fun and less scary than I thought 😃

@Alyson we tried mashed potato tonight and it wasn't horrendous he had quite a few spoonfuls (he spat it back out but it was a start). His face was a picture though 🤣🤣

@Astrid I love this!! We moved on to broccoli today, we got the most brilliant faces too 😂 He definitely preferred carrot lol. I need to try potato soon!

Do they need to up a teat? I found this every time my LG needed to up one, she’s now on mam teat X. she just gets bored and fed up of feeding when this happened xx
