Lazy eater?

BluehelixBluehelix
in February 2011 Moms

My little guy is such a lazy eater - he falls asleep while breastfeeding, and while bottle feeding. I've tried stroking/tickling him, undressing him, gently pulling my breast or the bottle away. Nothing seems to work for longer than a minute or two, then he's back to dozing!  He takes forever to eat as a result, and I'm getting frustrated.

Anyone have any suggestions or advice before I lose my mind??

    My little monster is getting better from his laziness. I have tto tap under his chin, do breast compressions and I shoot a little bit of bm from a syringe into his mouth while nursing. I also tickle him lift his arm up to his ear and keep him naked during the day. It's a pain, but since starting the first routine 2 days ago I've seen a huge improvement. We also see a LC 2 to 3 times a week

    I pump DS's top arm up and down.  We joke it's like an old water pump.  I was also told to massage the breast down towards the  nipple, or to put a finger above and one below the nipple and squeeze.

    I have this problem too sometimes. All I have to do is change his diaper and use a cold wipe,
