My son is 11 weeks old, he is bottle fed and he has cmpa so he is on neocate formula. This has been brilliant for him and he's always enjoyed his feeds and been a hungry boy (he's quite big) he has 5oz every 3h or thereabouts.
Lately he's started doing this strange thing where he will cry for his bottle so we prepare it and go to feed him only for him to suck the bottle like a dummy and drift off. If we replace the bottle with a dummy or try a dummy in the first instance he will scream bloody murder. I think he is hungry as he wants it when he normally would (he feeds at (7, 10, 1, 4, repeat) but he will easily spend 30mins not actually drinking anything. This is especially hard with the night feeds as you spend most of the time trying to wake him up enough to take the milk and then you have to get him back down again, we are up for about 75mins!
We use mam bottles and a size1 teat, he has gaviscon in his nighttime milks as he gets reflux and the allergy milk is very thin.
Just wondering if anyone had experienced this, what did you do?
