ugh, dd has been so grumpy today. its on and off- i do not think its teething, although thats my only other theory if its not a growth spurt. she has tended to hit growth spurts early on and i am thinking this is just a 6m adjustment..  ? however, she has only nursed 3 times all day (compared to about 6x by now).. she has wet diapers so i am not worried but just really frustrated. she is acting normal otherwise and happy and smiling- in between screaming and refusing to eat that is!

    I've read it's very normal for babies not to want to nurse when they're teething... i know you're not sure that's what it is but that'd be my best bet! whatever it is I hope she feels better soon...

    I've been wondering if my DD is teething or going through a growth spurt too.  She hasn't been fussy but just won't stay down at night.  She woke up every other hour last night and wanted to nurse each time too.  It was brutal.

    i've been going through this for the past week....DD is formula fed.  she just has no interest in eating during the day.  Yesterday she took about 14 oz all day.  right now, we're up to 14 oz with hopes of getting one more bottle in before bedtime.  Because of this, she is up alot more during the night to make up for her lost food!!  We were up every 3 hours last night.  she had just recently started STTN.  I don't know what to do....she has just lost interest in food, until its nighttime.
