4 mo refusing to latch!

kiki317

My lo is almost 4 months old and in the few days he is fussy at the breast and refusing to latch.  2 days ago I broke down and gave him a bottle of formula before bed because I didn't want him to not eat at all. I pump after he goes down but I really miss feeding him before bed!

 Has anyone experienced a nursing strike and made it out in a positive way? Also, do you have anytips to get through this?

From what I remember reading, it could be a number of things. Could it be something you ate or is he sick or teething? Your let down could be too slow or fast.

 

My son started being picky as to what side he was fed on when it came to nursing before bed.  

 

Good luck.
