Not eating in one sitting?

Anyone else's FF baby take break in the middle of their bottles? All day today LO has cried and acted hungry at about every 3 hours, normal for her. But then she'll only eat 1 oz or 2 and then not want the rest until like 20 or 30 min later. She usually will take 3 or 4 oz bottles. Just happy to take a long break between today, a little weird, and a little inconvienent for me but SHEs the boss haha. Anyone else have this?

  • Yes! My guy waits about an hour and then wants 2 more ounces. Just long enough to have to need a new bottle. You're right, they're the boss. Lol.

    Yes my LO has been doing this also. I just make it in the Dr. Brown's pitcher and give it to him 2 oz at a time.

    Yep my dd is a "snacker" most of the time. She has a tongue tie though so she tires easily and that plays a part.
  • Yes but I am trying to break the habit. I sometimes need to wait until she is VERY hungry, since her latch is still awful and if she's not super hungry she will get distracted, not attempt to latch and can't coordinate her swallowing and sucking so she chokes.roday was our first day in a few where she took 4 bottles that were 4 to 5 oz and two bottles that were 2 oz.

  • My daughter started doing the same thing about a month ago. It drives me absolutely nuts!!! I feel like I spend my whole life feeding, not to mention how much formula we waste!!

    I was wasting a lot too. Then someone told me about that Dr. Brown's pitcher. I make enough formula to last 24 hours then I pour 2 ounces at a time into his bottle.
