It used to bug me and worry me but he's gaining weight nicely, seems happy, wets his diaper and hitting milestones so I guess he's satisfied and sufficient. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bad-eater-or-efficient#post-933558 Mon, 15 Jul 2013 17:55:51 +0000 autumnlove 933558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runsyellowlites: @birdofafeather: @rrachael: Thanks, I am going to chill out. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bad-eater-or-efficient#post-933516 Mon, 15 Jul 2013 17:33:26 +0000 rrachael 933516@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine got super efficient around three months (~5 minutes or less, one side only). I stressed a little, but she was gaining weight and her diapers were still getting wet, so now I just appreciate it :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bad-eater-or-efficient#post-933513 Mon, 15 Jul 2013 17:32:15 +0000 birdofafeather 933513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yeah, she went through a phase around 3 months where she would scream at me after a couple minutes. i kept trying to force her, but she refused. everything else was the same, so i gave up and we were all happier! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bad-eater-or-efficient#post-933506 Mon, 15 Jul 2013 17:30:06 +0000 runsyellowlites 933506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>P was ALWAYS a fast nurser &amp; it wasn't until 7+ months that she really did any comfort nursing so we always had sessions between 3-7 minutes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bad-eater-or-efficient#post-933498 Mon, 15 Jul 2013 17:27:50 +0000 autumnlove 933498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 2.5 month LO eats from one boob for each feeding. For the last week she hasn't nursed for longer than 5 minutes before she pops off. (Most nursing sessions are around 3 minutes..every 2.5-3 hours) I've tried burping, changing positions, switching boobs, offering a bottle of pumped milk....she just isn't hungry. She seems to be happy, sleeps through the night and doesn't look underweight but I still can't stop worrying. :-( </p> <p>Did your LO go through periods of eating very little? </p>
