Elliott is doing similar things! One nipple is really quite sore from the pulling off over and over thing where he has grazed me! And I've been pumping milk for storage in the mornings and have dropped from being able to get 150 mls in a session down to this morning only 30mls and he's feeding every two hours too. This thread has reminded me to go drink a bunch of water! I just think it's the heat mostly - it's an oven here too. Plus bub getting to the distracted stage a bit with feeding. Last night I warned Gunkle he wasn't to laugh or talk while I fed cause DS kept rolling toward the noise with boob in mouth. So he did his best then coughed by accident and Elliott pulled like crazy to look toward the cough. Gah! Pain!
Also Elliott can scream blue murder and arch his back if he doesn't get on quick enough too now and I was told it's cause the let down slows down a bit around now? You could try expressing a tiny bit to get let down to happen then latch bub - maybe not so much screaming and pulling??
Right off for massive water consumption and will report back ha ha.
