feeding strike

The girls have eaten the same amount every 3-4 hours, now one of my girls doesn't want to eat as much as the other and falls alseep and gets choked up.

This happen to anyone else??

 

Do they have reflux? My babies were refusing bottles due to reflux. Do they arch and scream when you are feeding them? Push the bottles out?

 

No arching or crying, but she will push the bottle out if I try and feed her before 4 hours.

Mine do that, what do you do about it?

 

anyone??

 

Emma wasn't as much of an archer/crier/spitter-upper, but she would completely refuse the bottles, even after 4 hours. She had silent reflux, and had to be put on meds for it. How much are they taking at a time, and total for the day?

 

what's silent reflux? my dd nurses for only a few minutes at a time and starts pushing the bottle out, arching her back after about taking 1 oz

neither are big spitter uppers, though, usually once a day at the most....

Silent reflux is basically when they don't often spit-up/throw-up, but still exhibit the same symptoms of reflux. They are refluxing, it just isn't coming all the way up.
