WTF!? Nursing strike? Please help!

kbates85 · March 2013

The last two feedings he has latched on and ate for a little while and then delatched and FREAKED out. Then refused to relatch, screaming if I even offered the boob. I had to hand him of to my MIL so he would calm down. Is this a nursing strike? Why would this happen? I'm really kind of freaking out. I really love breastfeeding but I hate this feeling. What can I do? I don't think my supply is low because I can easily express a little bit a of milk by hand even after he's eaten.

My LO does the freaked out detach most feedings because he gets an air bubble from my OAL. He latches back on after I burp him.

Yup same here, she needs a good burp. DD has acid reflux so she starts being really weird when she is in pain. Pulling off but then attacking the breast just to pull off again. Very frantic behavior.
