For the last few days my 10wk old (who was 5wks prem) has been pulling off at the end of each feed and screaming her head off. She'll tell me she's still hungry (thats how I'm interpretting it anyway) but when i try and feed her more she sucks till the milk starts flowing and then pulls off while just about taking my nipple with her and screams. She's then inconsolable for [insert a length of time between 1 and 4hours] and just won't settle. When we do finally settle her she won't stay asleep for more than 10 minutes at a time. I'm tearing my hair out.
She's been on infacol for a good couple of weeks now and I'm confident that certainly not all the screaming is wind.
She had her first set of jabs on thursday and has been worse since then but was already behaving like this before her jabs if I'm honest.
Does anyone have any ideas??? I am at a total loss as to whats wrong....is this just a baby thing and a stage that will pass? If so please tell me it won't last for long....
