My DS2 is almost 4 months and although I have not had him weighed for few weeks he is a chubby baby so am not concerned about his weight.
However, over the last few weeks he has become more and more "picky" over his milk. He will not take any milk less than fours hours apart and cries his heart out if you try earlier and does not appear to want more than 4 feeds over 24 hours. If he decides he wants to have the milk he will drink efficiently
Today was an extreme. He had a full 8oz bottle (ff - sorry!) at 11ish last night downed in one and then up to now has only had about 5oz in total. This is not enough but he has been kicking, smiling and laughing all day and only cries when you try and feed him!
What can I be doing wrong? DS1 would have fed all day long so this is new to me!
