my 6MO normally pushes away the breast when he has enough. recently, he's a bit fussy hence I offered 90-120ml of EBM and he finished them all in addition to his earlier latching. is this normal? I am guessing the flow of BM through the bottle is easier hence he didn't reject it even though he is supposedly full?!

Babies tend to appear hungrier when they are going through a growth spurt. During this period, baby would feed more and need less sleep. He/she may also appear clingy and more restless. It will last for 2-3 days but could also go up to a week. Here’s an article on baby’s growth spurt: http://www.babycentre.co.uk/a25012757/baby-growth-spurts
