How often is your 4 month old eating

  Since midnight....he has eaten three good times and one not so good time (only 2 oz).  He's gotten really fussy about eating lately and isn't very predictable anymore.  As my husband describes it, he sometimes acts "like we're feeding him battery acid".....I wonder what's going on with him?  On average though, he seems to be stretching himself to every four hours now rather than the three hours we've been on for two or so months.

  Sounds like us she had 3 good feeds and one 2 ozer and one quick BF.  I totally feel with the batter acid part--she takes 2 sucks and screams at me.   It is really frustrating!

  It is very frustrating!  We thought we'd figured it out and assumed he was screaming at us because he wasn't hungry every three hours anymore.  Feeding every four hours helped some, but not enough...twice tonight he screamed when I tried to BF him, but eventually he ate like he was starving.  It just took multiple tries and being yelled at for a while.
