Dd2 is 10 weeks and ebf, she is usually very calm and laid back, she usually feeds very well.
However she had her first lot of injections on Monday and since then whenever I try to feed her she is getting really cross, kicking her legs, crying and generally just really unsettled. She was asking for a feed this morning whilst we were at playgroup but she did all the above and another mother commented that it looked like I was trying to "force feed" her. She isn't doing it for every feed but I would say most feeds. Her nappies are fine so inbetween all this she must be getting some milk. Any ideas ladies?

Could be the vaccinations, if it's only started since then - my 5mo has developed extremely bad eczema within a few days of each of his injections and it's only just starting to settle 4 weeks since his last booster - I know it's not the same but it's a lot for their bodies to deal with so some can be affected in various ways.
Anything else changed? Have you eaten something over the past week or so that might be disagreeing with her that you haven't eaten before?

I can't think of anything. I'm hoping it passes soon as all I seem to be doing is trying to calm her!!

My 14 week old dd is doing the same thing ....no idea why :-/ fingers crossed it ends soon :)

It's strange isn't it shelly. I have noticed her skin isn't great today so I think she either has a bit of a virus or it's a reaction to her jabs :-(
