DS is driving me nuts. I feed him 6 times a day, 4am, 8 30am, 11am, 1 30pm, 3pm and a 3 hour ish cluster feed at 6pm! This is fine, I usually enjoy feeding him but lately he is being so frustrating! Literally every feed goes like this: feed one side 5 mins- have hissy fit (violently throw head up and down, same with legs, sometimes cry)- swap sides- feeds fine for 5 mins- hissy fit- swap sides-feed fine for 5 mins... You see where this is going?
Sitting him up doesn't help he still chucks his tanty until I turn him around and then he's fine until the next one. Night times are worse, tonight it was every 2mins, at least it felt like it...
I have no idea why he's doing this. I'm not pressuring him- if he doesn't want any milk I dont push it, but he does, if I put him down he comes over to me and attaches himself! I just dont understand, I think if I did it'd be so much less irritating!
I'm getting so annoyed with him and I hate being angry with him. I just want my peaceful little feeder back.
On a possibly related/ possibly not related note; he always feeds to sleep and aside from night sleeps stays in my arms until he wakes up, if I put him down he wakes up after 15/20mins and is still tired and grumpy but wont re-settle whereas if I hold him he'll sleep for 1-3 hours depending on which nap it is.
ETA- not sure why I added that bit, but it seemed important...?

I'm so sick of this, why does he do it?!
