She hardly feeds from me now, she'll have her first feed in bed when she wakes up, then around midday, sometimes in the afternoon and then at bedtime. Aside from the morning and bedtime feed she treats me more like snack bar... feeds a minute, sits up looks about, lays down, feeds a bit, sits up looks about... it's really quite frustrating.
I've been trying to get her to take from a bottle but that's a no go, she just wants to bite the teat and she will drink sips from a trainer cup. I think I'm gonna try expressing and give her the milk in her cup, I don't want to give her formula and the health visitor said she's too young for cows milk yet.
It's a pain, (literally), to know what is best for her and me.
