Baby not feeding as well - heat?

Has anyone elses baby gone off their milk during this heat? My little one was doing pretty good until yesterday tea time when he had 3oz and stopped. He would usually have 8-9oz at a time. And this morning he's had about 6oz when he would usually demolish an 8.5oz bottle and wasn't overly fussed with his porridge either. If I try and give him anymore, he just bats the bottle away or just sucks enough milk out to blow it back at me.

I'm hoping once it's cooled down he goes back to normal. It was still 23.5 degrees in his room this morning!

Exact same here, had just got my baby into a good routine with feeding and now it’s all gone wrong again! X

I'm so glad it's not just me!

We've had a couple of rough months with his feeding and we've just had a couple of really good weeks, felt like we were making progress and now gone backwards!

Yep same here! Since the heat we’ve had a few pretty rubbish days with eating and sleeping 🙄
Seems to be happier today now it’s cooler.
We are the same - felt as though we were getting a good routine then it all went out the window a bit

His naps have been a bit hit and miss but he's been sparked out on a night, even got a bit worried about him.

Today seems to be the worse day for his feeds. He's on about 13.5/14oz so far where he's usually on 16/17 by now. I really hope he picks up tomorrow. I'm a worrier so on edge during every feed and worried he's not getting enough again

Each feed just seems to be getting worse! His last feed he took 3oz rather than his usual 8/9. We'll be lucky to end on 25oz for the day at this rate and he usually has 40oz.

I don't know what to do. I just want to cry 😭

How are you ladies getting on today? My lo keeps tricking me. Last night before bed had 8.5oz, has 7.75 for breakfast this morning, but has only had 4.5oz just now.

Starting to wonder if there's anything else going on or whether he's just still off it from the heat 😩 getting a bit worried
