6 week old crying when feeding

My just 6 week old DD has started crying and wriggling like mad during feeds. The first morning feed is normally fine but then after that she is whining, crying, wriggling her whole body and will not settle. Anyone know what this could be? I'm going to mention it to health visitor

Without hearing of any other symptoms, it could reflux or silent reflux.

The health visitor came over and tried to feed her. She doesn't think reflux or silent reflux she is saying its the teats on the bottles

It’s usually a letdown issue so if you’re bottle feeding then it’s probably the flow
