my dd is 14 weeks old, she feeds 2-3 times in the night with no problem, but more often than not when i try to feed her in the day she gets furious, cries hysterically and is generally not having any of it. she has had a stuffy nose since she was 2 weeks old, but even when it doesn't seem blocked she still gets cross.

with dd1 my motto was 'when in doubt, feed' and this worked pretty well for her, but given the level of fury it raises in dd2 i need to know how often she should be fed so i know when to worry and when to leave her alone.

btw i am talking about breastfeeding.

TIA jane

Not sure if I can give much advice but didnt want thread to go unanswered.
If she doesnt want to feed she cant be really hungry but since you're feeding 2-3 times a night she'll still be getting a fair amount from these feeds.
Is she windy? Constipated? Having wet nappies?
