At this age, there can be a few things I think.. 1. Regression (due to significant milestones eg. Wonder Week) 2. Illness (check for fever and other signs of irritability, and bring baby for a checkup if you’re worried) 3. Gum discomfort (may not have teeth out yet, but the gums are preparing for that so baby finds it painful to suck on the teat and cannot drink for long).
How's her frequency of wet diapers? If there's not much changes, nth to worry abt but continue to monitor. If you're bottle feeding, try to change the bottle teat. Sometimes babies may feel it's too slow as they grow but change back if she keeps unlatching as it may mean the flow is too fast.
Less drink less of wet diapers 😄 I adjust myself to accept the fact that she drinks less, less stress 😄 I didn't change teat because she has been using the upgraded size teats for half a month already and no issue until recently. After a few days, she resume to normal drinking rate 👍 Appreciate your advice and sharing 🙏
