Hi all,
Hoping for some advice while waiting to hear from the infant feeding team. For two days my kid has been eating less each meal - 2-2.5 oz down from 4-4.5 oz. He stops in the middle of eating, struggles away from the bottle and starts crying. If/when he eventually calms down, he'll still show signs of being hungry (latches to my fingers, mouth open and searching left and right, brings his hands to the mouth). However if I offer him the rest of his bottle, he won't take it/latch to it and starts fussing or crying again.
He only started doing this 2 days ago, and I'm at my wits end as we haven't changed anything regarding his feeding since before that.

Could it be wind? We find our girl flails about and struggles/ stops feeding properly when she’s uncomfortable with wind then if we manage to get a burp out she will continue x
I burp him when he takes a break, but it doesn't make a difference :(
Update: the feeding team said to trial not using the prep machine for a week. Am not convinced how this would interfere, plus he has the same reaction to expressed breast milk and ready to feed one:(
