snacking .. all the time

[mrsneish2b]

Hi Ladies, can I have some advice? My 4 week old has started acting hungry all the time.. I gave her the bottle and she sucks for a minute or so then falls asleep ive tried everything stroking her face putting her down on her changing mat, changing her nappy this wakes her up so i offer bottle and she promptly drifts off again, so i put her down in her rocker, she starts crying acting hungry again and the cycle continues ALL DAY... (and night) my poor dd1 has this week had to learn to get her own breakfast etc as i am always always feeding maisie,
plus to even take an ounce she takes such a long time nothing in the house gets done shes on Aptimal comfort avent bottles size 2 teat ( the size 3 flows so fast it runs down her neck) any advice to get her to take each feed and not have an ounce every hour all day..

my health visitor suggested blowing lightly in their face to wak them up.

its a bit mean but it worked for me

Sorry to say but have you tried a dummy? Maybe she just likes to suck
