    not feeding

    Charlotte had a good feed this morning at 4am and since then i can not get to feed i have tried heaps all all she does is pull of all chats i think the longest i have got her to feed is about 1-2 mins all she has been bringing up all the milk too, which is not really like her, she is asleep at the moment and i will try to feed her when she wakes up, but i really don't know what to do?

    Kelly - I'm with you on that one today too! Maybe it's the heat? Fingers crossed both our bubs co-operate soon 'cos my BBs are about to burst LOL!

    Kelly and Soph, my DS did this a couple of weeks ago on a stinking hot day. I would have thought the heat would mean he'd drink more, but no, I couldn't get him to take it. In the end he had a huge feed after his bath in the late afternoon and then slept for 6 hours and had a great night. I hope it works out like this for you too. If your BBs are really sore I would express to relieve them. Keep the milk - you can always try EBM in a bottle if the fussiness lasts.

    I got her to have a big feed before, but she ended throwing it up a little, rang my health nurse and she said it could be a tummy bug and to just keep offering the boob

    LOL Kelly I got Ned to have a good 10 mins around 3pm an dthen he proceeded to have a big spew too! Maybe our bubs are in sync? I'm just a little anxious because Ned's been slow on the weight gain for the past few weeks and weigh in is tomorrow. But what can you do?
