My 4-month old squirms all the time when breastfeeding. She wriggles, flails her arms and legs (sometimes quite violently), and rubs at her face. I'm finding it difficult to keep her latched on. Why is she doing this and should I try to pin her arms down when nursing?

Hmmph it happened to me. Sometimes due to him bejng distracted, other times he was unwell had a stuffy nose which made it hard for. Him. Also when he was teething he kept tugging my Nipples. I gently said no, and did not allow him to latch for a minute. A week later, problem solved.
