Actually I think it's kind of funny! Usually soon afterwards I am able to confirm that she doesn't want to eat because she pukes, burps, falls asleep or all of the above :)</p> <p>I know she gets more than enough to eat based on weight gain so no worries.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/rooting-but-not-hungry#post-416150 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 23:44:45 +0000 MusicaV 416150@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS started doing this a week or two ago. I'll let him do it for a minute or two, then pull him up to burp. If he's really hungry, he'll cry to be put back down. He's usually very down-to-business when he's hungry and ready to eat. Sometimes I think he has a mischievous look in his eye when he does it, like yeah Mom, I'm just wasting time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/rooting-but-not-hungry#post-416058 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 22:01:26 +0000 junebugmama 416058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have you tried to put her back on the other side, the side you just took her off of? She may have a breast preference. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/rooting-but-not-hungry#post-416049 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 21:55:42 +0000 SleepyMonkey 416049@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sometimes when I offer LO the second side, she will push away and fight me, but be rooting around at the same time. She often won't latch on and just kinda slobbers all over my nipple. Occassionaly she will latch after a lot of pushing and fighting but only feeds for like 3-4 minutrs. Anyone else had this problem? I don't get whether she is actually hungry or not. </p>
