I pump so the majority of the time he gets bottles. At night I nurse him just because it's easier and first thing in the morning I nurse him. Could he be crying b/c he wants the breast? He took 4 oz. @ 10:30 with no problem. Ate again at 1:30, and cried a bit. Now at 4:30 has been screaming throughout the entire feeding. I can't figure it out. Any input is greatly appreciated!

is he arching his back? does he have gas? is it coming out of the nipple correctly (maybe this nipple comes out slower than the others)?

My first thought was gas. Second thought was hes not hungry, just wants to go back to sleep.

maybe it's coming out too slowly. Can you get a faster nipple?

sounds like maybe reflux. Does he squirm and arch his back? push the bottle away but yet he's very hungry and wants it? How do his burps afterwards smell?
