4 month old - won't take more than 4 oz in morning
« on: October 23, 2015, 13:27:12 pm »
I have a 18 week old who for the past 3 days won't take more than 3 or 4 ounces in the morning. Which then messes up the 9 am nap. she wakes up hungry. the rest of the day she takes 6-8 ounces. She gets a dream feed at 1045 PM. I would assume she is starving in the morning. Today I tried to wait 15 min to feed her but still same result.

It's rare but possible that they are dropping DF at that age. Can you move DF to 10pm so she takes less and is more hungry in the morning?
