Anyone had the little one refuse their breast

[slummymummy]

Hi,

I have been breastfeeding for 4 and half months and this morning my son decided he didn't want breast and refusd it. this happened again when i tried abit later.

Has this happened to anyone else? I thought babies didn't refused breast because it was a comforter aswell as food.

Please help

Could he be teething?

No doesn't look like any teeth coming through, i thought it was a comforter though.which surely make him want breast more.

Thanks though.

Caitlyn doesn't really like having things in her mouth when they're breaking.

Maybe he's just having an off day?

Dan decided he had had enough at 6 mths. He just stopped one day and that was it. Fitted in quite nicely though for me as I had just started to feed him baby rice.
