Maybe its just a stage Kat? I know Miss M goes through stages where she skulls heaps and then somedays she's just not that interested!!!!!
I'd say give it a couple of days and if you are worried - pop down to the GP and get him checked out. He's not coming down with a cold or anything? Sometimes that can put them off their food.. I know you said he isn't sick - but maybe he's coming down with it?
If he is still gaining weight and plenty of wet and pooped up nappies - I wouldn't be too worried.. he's just taking what he needs.
thanks Mel....the tongu thing and chomping down on the nipple is a new thing....just now he has drunk 140mls...which i am happy with yep plenty of wet/poey nappies (well once a day poo)
i am going to get the next flow size teat and see what happens...
I would say he just doesn't need as much for now, but it will only be another 2weeks or so and he'll be heading into his next growth spurt stage and he'll probably want more then. In my experience, its best not to worry about it, they will catch it up later at some point. If he were at the breast he would probably be doing the same thing, but you have no idea of how much/little he's taken kwim? So long as he's happy and content, sleeps reasonably well (as well as a baby can LOL) and does all the usual nappy things, then he would be fine with what he's getting. I know my 4 always went through stages where they just weren't interested and then they would have a week or so where you couldn't keep it up to them. Even now, Alister is just coming into another week where he devours everything in sight, but last week not so much and he wasn't finishing bottles etc.
