My 9 week old is feeding less

[Jsantos]

My little one was normally on 5/6oz every 3/4hours but these last few days has only been taking 3/4oz sometimes even 2oz and is wanting to feed more often. He’s also increasingly fussy, crying and not sleeping as well (waking up every couple of hours crying). Could he be going through a growth spurt? Should I be worried?!

Sounds more like they're coming down with a bug.

Feed as often as you can so they're still getting as close as possible to usually amount they'd take in a 24 hour period but via smaller bottles and check in with hv/gp as they're so little.

Probably just a cold given time of year but can't hurt for a hcp to give them a once over for reassurance.
