Baby not feeding in the evenings

Hi,
My 9 week old is breastfed and it’s been going well up until now. I am finding that when I feed her around the time of 10pm she doesn’t seem to latch properly, she goes on the breast for about a minute and then comes off screaming and I can’t get her back on properly. I’ve tried all sorts of different positions but nothing seems to help. There is definitely milk coming out as I can easily hand express some at this time. Has this happened to anyone else?
Thanks

Is she waking for this feed OP or are you waking her? Are you feeding to a schedule or on cue?

No I’m not waking her for the feed and feeding on cue not to a schedule at the moment. Thanks

Thanks I was just checking as it can affect what’s going on Smile

If you’re cue feeding could she be over tired?

Have you read Cluster Feeding and Fussy Evenings on Kellymom? If that doesn’t help, it might be worth ringing one of the Bfing Helplines. Have you got the numbers?
