Baby feeding

My 2 month old is really struggling to finish a bottle. He had his immunisations a little over a week ago and since then he has consistently struggled to complete a feed. Prior to this he would take 5floz each feed whereas now he will get down to 2floz and stop feeding, at this point he will look as though he will go onto the bottle and then push it away with a combination of his tongue and hands before smiling up at us. Alternatively he will start kicking, straining and going quite taught.
We make sure to burp him regularly throughout each feed but don't get much wind out of him (he's never been a gassy baby).

Has he got a cough or a cold? This will make them take less as a full tummy makes it harder for them to breath.

How often are you feeding him? On demand or on a schedule? How long between feeds? How many total oz does he have in a 24hr period. How are his nappies?

Sorry lots of questions but is it the same of you went 3/4 hrs between feeds as say 2?
