I'm getting to the end of my tether...
My 17 wk old wee boy is bottle fed (I feel so guilty about this but I tried and tried for 6 weeks until my milk supply stopped but he screamed whenever he got close to me Had lots of advice and tried EVERYTHING but it just wasnt to be.... is made worse by my smug sister whose wee boy is 6 wks and feeding perfectly)
Any way sometimes he is fine and drinks a good 6oz but at least 3 out of the 5 feeds a day is taking the best part of 2 hours and lots of tantrums (proper screaming and tears!).... he just hates doing the sucking thing unless he is starving... And If I let him miss feeds or drink tiny amounts to avoid the tantrums during the day he is up at 2am 4am and 6am!!!!
Help!!!!
Any useful suggestions that I may not have thought of???
His Dad just wants to wean him... but he is far far too young, and if hes not interested in milk he isnt going to be interested in the hard stuff.... been turning into blazing rows.....
