Strange bottle behaviour??

[mommybearx]

DD is 8 weeks today and since yesterday she hasnt been having her bottle as she usually does.
She was on between 6-8oz every 3ish hours having 5 bottles a day and drinking at the very least 5oz per meal.
It started yesterday, she had her 6oz in the morning but was very unsettled while drinking which she usually is very still and calm, she was kicking her legs and shaking her head etc. Then during the day I found it so hard to get it down her, she would drink as normal for the first oz or two but after that she would start messing around. Its like she wants the bottle but when I give it to her she shakes her head all over the place and makes strange noises and doesnt suck very much.
Shes just had her morning bottle and had 4oz which has took her ages to get her to have.
Shes a very good baby and sleeps from around 12-1 until 8-9 so I am very lucky.
She has no temp, no signs of being ill other than this and shes not crying.
Does anyone know what it could be?

It's early but could she possibly be teething?

Well, I thought it might be, but like you say its a bit early, right? :S

Robyn's shown some teething signs since 2 months, they come and go, some days she's fine other days really grumpy. No teeth yet though! I use dentinox teething gel when she's really bad as that one's suitable from birth. She's breast fed but there are days when she won't feed unless I put gel on her 5 mins before.

My little guy will go through phases where he does this. Sometimes it is because he is tired, or because he has some gas pains. But sometimes he just does not want to take a bottle right then! He also loves to look around, so I have to move the bottle with him, he rarely ever just sits still and eats!
