I have a 7 week old baby who is taking up to an hour to feed. And even so she still doesn't manage to drink all her 120 mls of formula - at the most 100mls. Once I have started to feed her she falls asleep & refuses to awake. I have tried the suggestion of changing teats to a larger size - but she chokes and splutters the formula.
I am not sure what to do as she seems quite content, burps easily, wants to feed 4 hrly & only cries hysterically prior to wanting her feed. She has put on weight, but not a considerable amount.
Should I be worrying or do I continue trying to force the feed down my daughter?
