Breastfeeding

LO gets upset sometimes while eating...anyone else go through this?

Henry is 4 weeks today and we EBF.  It's going well, at least I think it is.  He has plenty of wet/soiled diapers.  He is gaining weight and growing, too fast if you ask me.  He latches on well and for the most part we have no problems.  Sometimes though he gets upset while eating.  He will be latched on just fine then get upset but won't let go.  After a bit he calms down and goes back to eating.  Anyone else experience this?

  • I didn't experience that but my DS would occassionally get fussy when he was eating just because he would get sleepy and he was a big-time sleep fighter. I don't think that started till he was a little bit older though. Sounds like overall you are having a really good experience though and your little guy is doing great!

  • My DS does this sometimes too. Usually I think its just gas...if I unlatch him, I can get a burp out pretty quickly.

    I also agree with PP about being tired. Today DS kept unlatching and rooting, but not really sucking. I swaddled him and he almost immediately calmed down and fell asleep pretty quickly.
