It only really started in the middle of the night feed last night. My 10 week old, Elodie wouldn't feed lying down or in the upright position - was crying and refusing the nipple which she never does.
This morning, in frustration I tried with a nipple shield and she took it and is okay now.
For the past few days I have been pumping a lot more as my supply has really evened it, to the point where I can't express for the 10pm feed which my dh normally does. I pump after I feed her to stimulate even more (according to Clare Byam-Cook). Could this put her off somehow?
She had also not pooed for 24 hours and then just did the mother of all poonamis. Could constipation have made her fussy??
Any experience of this?
