Sorry - ignore last post here it is with title so you can actually read it !
DD is 3 weeks old and mixed fed, expressed and formula due to not being able to latch on as early and tiny. She has been bottle feeding really well until the last 48 hours where she has been taking much longer to take less. Have tried to keep burping her but this doesn't seem to have much effect, and using infacol. She dirnks the expressed milk much faster and more of it but is then starving 2 hours later. Its getting quite frustrating as she is feeding 3 hourly so is almost ready to feed again by the time she's finished (slight exageration!). At night she has been difficult to settle in between despite previously being quite good at going down between feeds.
Any ideas ? I have bought a different formula today (aptimil instead of C&G). Do you think she could need bigger teats ? Any suggestions gratefully received as it meant virtually no sleep last night !
