Can't settle for naps

[besjoux]

I have an (almost) 2 month old and notice she also has problems with my letdown but only when she is tired. She does the same thing, pull off, get's mad and then bobs back on. I believe that she just wants to suck but doesn't want a lot of milk when she is really tired. She only does this when tired. Is your LO similar? Is this behavior occur all of the time or only when she is tired? I am 100% sure that this LO does not have reflux because I have 2 boys who DID have reflux and her behavior isn't anything that of what the boys had.

She doesn't bob on and off as much anymore. I try to lean back and I have her sit up to feed rather than be lying on her back. So it likely was a letdown problem.

Her naps have been getting longer the past couple days as I've cut down the awake time. But now it seems to be affecting her night sleep!! Ugh does that sound right??!!  My neighbour warned me not to complain about day naps if her sleep was going well!

Her tummy doesn't rumble like it did before. But in the past 2 night from around 5am onwards she wakes every 45 min. She does let out a lot of gas at that time, but it doesn't seem to be painful for her. But I wonder if that's what is waking her up.

Oh boy. I'm trying to take this all in stride since I know she's still young and developing. But oh boy she's a challenge!!!

How are her poos - texture and colour?

Its pretty normal for gas to wake a young baby, just with the strange sensation even if its not painful enough to make her scream.

Her poops are a dark mustard yellow with a mustard consistency with some small curds. She had her biggest poop ever today so I'm wondering if last night's gas was a buildup for today.

Oh and I spoke much too soon about her naps improving. Today was a baaad day. She wouldn't settle at all. All her naps were in the carrier today
