My 12 week old sometimes isn't drinking full bottles recently.she usually drinks 6oz of formula milk every 3 hrs.last few days she's left half or less of some bottles.sleeping atleast 6hrs at night.and having around 6 bottles a day.shes still smiley and happy when awake and content.wet and dirty nappies still.just checking if it's normal for babies to go off milk a bit?

Thanks x

Hi how are things now? I think it’s normal sometimes, as they might be teething or coming down with something, I just offered mine feeds more often when they became fussy and they soon found there new rhythm.

How are you getting on now? I’m pregnant and remember the tiredness kicking around 3 months, from my others!!!!!!
