12 week old DD has always bf'd well - gaining weight, plenty of wet and dirty nappies etc. The only supply issues I have had have been over supply - I can express a fair bit fortunately. All was well until this afternoon when she started screaming as soon as I put her n my lap for a feed. She just screamed and wouldn't latch on at all. This was about 2 and a half hours after her previous short feed and as she was getting grumpy I thought she was hungry. So we gave up and I tried again half an hour after she had a short snooze. Nope. Then again half an hour later after bath. Nope.
She was obv tired and in a tizz but wouldn't sleep so DH gave her a bottle of EBM which luckily I had done last night and she went out like a light after guzzling the lot so she was obviously hungry.
I got massively upset and am now worrying she prefers a bottle to me. I can express all her feeds I suppose but it wouldn't exactly be ideal.
I though nursing strikes only happenned in older babies but I just can't fathom why she rejected the breast. She has a bit of a cold but we have had several of those before (thanks to DS bringing them home from nusery and playgroup) with no feeding issues.
Is this normal or does it sound like something is wrong?
Sorry for long post - am stressed and frustrated.
