Is this normal??

DD is usually a great eater, but lately there are some times where she will fight and scream and cry when we try to feed her. Like today she hasn't taken a bottle since 9:15 am. I tried at 1:15 pm before her nap and she fought me, then I just tried again after her nap and she fought again. Is this normal? She usually goes anywhere from 3-4 hours between bottles and takes 6-8 oz.

    Is she teething? I don't have any experience with this, but I have read that can cause them to refuse to eat because it hurts to suck.

    Yeah I think she is. She is putting everything in her mouth (more than usual) and drooling a whole lot more than normal. I guess that could be it. Thanks!

    I have no idea if it is normal, but my DS is a little younger than your little one and I'm having the same issue. Usually he eats 6-8oz ever 2.5-3 hours, but the last few days he just isn't interested. I am guessing that he's teething, like PP suggested because when he does take a bottle he more interested in chewing on the nipple than feeling himself.
