4month old off her food????

[tara4567]

Hey, my 4 month old is bottle fed and used to drink 6ozs every feed. For the past two weeks she is only having 3ozs per feed and is waking every 4 hours in the night for a small feed too. Anyone know why this could be and should i worry???? Thanks xx

have you tried a faster teat?

I did but she gagged!!

how about a variflow teet?

Sounds like it might be the 4m developmental growth spurt/sleep regression - if she is waking at night to feed then she's adjusting what she eats in the day to compensate so she doesn't eat too much (clever girl!).

If you just give her how much milk she needs, when she needs it, she won't over ride her satiety cues and eat too much.

Sounds like she, and you, are doing really well.

Thank you! I think i worry too much at times and sometimes lose perspective in the middle of the night!!
