Feeding trouble

2018-06-22 08:21:47
My son is 21 days old and gets extremely agitated and restless before a feed it takes approximately 30 min for him to latch on bottle. Aftet he has latched on he takes time  to drink the milk and sometimes  sleeps on the bottle. He is a pre term baby because of IUGR and oligohydramnios. My inability to lactate resulted in him getting top feed thru the bottle. I am using the avent phillips
