squirming & short nursings

[Bella~*]

Well she's still squirming and seems to be like gas pains or something? I Just nursed her for 5 minutes and she will squirm If i try and give the booby back, its like Nah' Mom I dont want any :(

What is her problem? and even at nap i knew she was tired, and usually she'll nurse until she clonks out, instead she cried and fussed and squirmed, I said OK fine, I put her in the swing and she fell assleep.

DO I take the squirming as, I dont want any??

[Smidget]

i would. you can't force her to eat. D sometimes cries so much she refuses to eat. and i just let her not eat till she decides she's ready. they'll get hungry enough eventually, KWIM?

At 5 months I would let her decide.

They get really efficient and sometimes 5 minutes is all it takes. Unless you notice anything else wrong, I would consider yourself lucky. :)

HAHA THANKS GIRLS.

she seems to eat more at night. just before bed she'll nurse it seems these last two nights about thirty minutes. but during the day its like 5-10 minutes.

she was gassy though she was stinkin' lol

yes, if she is okay otherwise i would let her tell you when she is done. unless you think her reflux is acting up i would say jsut let her guide you to when she is hungry and when she is finished. she does have sooo much to see now, too:friends2

shes so funny lastnight I was nursing lastnight sitting up against the couch and she was fussy so I gave her some nannie and she would pull away and look at me so serious (as my husband was talking ) Like, What? Are you trying to talk to me? :lol

[SnowBirdie]

Aw...how sweet! She is really trying to communicate with you..and listening to everything you say!:pinkheart

:pinkheart My boys started being really quick about daytime nursing around then, too. There is too much going on and they want to be doing things all of the time. They would settle down and nurse more at night and that's what they still kind of do.
