I really dont know whats wrong with her!

I dont know if its wind or not, but for the past 3 days Maisie has been a nightmare during feeds.

She'll want a bottle, ill give her one she'll take about 2 oz... start moaning so i wind her, she burps,i go to offer her more bottle but she cries and wont open her mouth wide enough for me to get the milk in. So ill stand up with her to wind her again and shes fine, but as soon as i sit down she starts crying again! i try her bottle again she wont have it, so i burp her but she wont burp, maybe does a little one then just wants to go in her swing or something.

Does it sound like wind? I dont know if shes teething... does that cause this problem too? I put my finger in her mouth and she bites hard on it, ive been giving her teething gel today but she still dont want her milk?

Its just happned, so ive put her in her swing and shes chewing her fists again! I dont know if its cus shes hungry or what!

Which teat are you using? She might be getting frustrated that the flow is a bit slow for her so she's not taking very much? x

I did buy 2 of the stage 2 teats to try and she seems great on them but i only have two... im getting some more monday. Maybe it could be? I dont know though, ive noticed she does do it on the faster teats too.x

Might be teething then... the sucking action on bottles irritates their gums - Sam had bottles of expressed milk from about 6 weeks and as his first teeth started coming through he started refusing them completely. Chilling the teat might help, or teething gel 20 minutes before x

P.S. I love your avatar!

When they're this little it's very frustrating when they do this as you just don't know why...is it teeth, sore throat, a cold, hunger, tiredness, wind, sore tummy????.....you have my sympathy.
