LO is 16 weeks and getting increasingly difficult to bf. Takes a couple of sucks and then pulls off, arches back, screams... repeat ad infinitum. Usually happens either when we're out in a busy place, or at the end of an exciting day, when he's tired.
I have had supply issues previously but these are by and large sorted - LO has been gaining weight better over the past 6 weeks (4oz/week) and has been weeing and pooing fine.
It has been getting worse lately. I had been giving him a bottle of EBM when he did this in the evenings, but it was getting to be a daily ritual and I was advised to stop offering bottles. So I haven't offered him any bottles over the past 3 days and now in the evenings he is like a mad thing, almost to the extent of a nursing strike. He screams till he's exhausted, getting more furious whenever I offer him the breast, then when he's nearly asleep he latches on and seems to feed in his sleep. So he's still getting wet nappies etc but I am finding this VERY stressful and frustrating.
Can anyone advise please?
