12 week old lo still giving me trouble - in fact last three days been bad as ever..

feeding every 2-3 hours through night....

worse wind etc

smaller feeds throughout day

still ends up taking a litre every day -

but now is spreading the feeds evenly thinly throughout day and increasing number of feeds with smaller volume per feed (3-4-5 ounces) instead of lowering number with bigger volumes

surely his stomach should grow in size not shrink?

surely it should get better not worser???

so thought would change teat size to a three but he almost chocked and drowned?!!

is it the teat? or is it something else? why??

at wits end and finding myself getting angrier by the day with alkl this baby palava

maybe feed somewhere with no distractions (difficult i know) or get a ribbon to stroke on face whilst feeding (something for lo to watch whilst feeding).

hopfully lo will grow out of it soon.
