13 week old only drinks half her bottle then needs a 20 min break before finishing

Hi all,

The title says it all really, but for some reason in the last week or so she will drink 70ml of her 180ml bottle and then after a burp she will refuse anymore for a good 20mins or so and then she will suddenly want the rest later.
Has this happened to anyone else? It’s not the end of the world because at least she is getting what she needs, but it’s just frustrating because each bottle is now an hour (or more) long process.

I think some babies do this. I know a 12 week old baby who currently likes to have two breaks of about 10 minutes while having a bottle. My grand daughter also liked to take a break halfway through but she had silent reflux.

Yes my daughter did the same. And some days drank the whole thing in one xxx
