Feeding problems
Lately Logan decided to make it more difficult for us to feed him. First of all we're kind of stuck at around 80 ml - 100 ml of breast milk per feeding. And then he decided to refuse the bottle / nipple by moving his head from the left to the right and vice versa whenever we try to feed him. Sometimes we get lucky and the nipple into his mouth and he starts drinking. On other occasions we have to give up because he just does not take it.
We can tell that he is hungry but we do not know what is causing this behavior. At the end of the day we still end up that he has taken enough breast milk to be within the appropriate range given to us by the pediatrician. As an example - at a certain point the minimum he needed during the day was 16 oz. and we were able to feed 18 oz. That is still not a lot to gain more weight.
