Anyone know what this might mean?

My 6-week-old DD is sometimes very fussy at the breast, pulling off and simultaneously trying to latch on again and kneading it with her fists and crying...I don't know if it's wind (but I've tried burping her and it makes no difference), that she isn't hungry any more or if she's still hungry and frustrated by a slower flow or something. She never does it at the beginning of a feed.

She doesn't tend to do it at night (touch wood), there she feeds quietly until she's finished.

If anyone has any advice...thank you!

Not really sure I'm afraid. You could try swapping her over to the other breast once she starts to fuss and see if that helps.

My daughter (5 weeks) does exactly this, and I assumed it's because of a slow flow. It tends to happen in the evenings when she seems hungrier generally, and I think she mostly does it after a let-down (which gives a temporarily fast flow) has finished, to try to get the milk going faster again.

mine did this and I swapped her to the other boob and she stopped fussing then - took me quite a while to realise this i what i needed to do though!

Don't know I'm sorry but have you tried talkin to a bfing counsellor, they might know.
