Feed when calm, not overly sleepy. If the baby is too sleepy or overtired, they may cry instead of latching. Try offering feeds when just waking from a nap or before they become overtired Reduce distractions Feed in a Quiet dim room, With fewer people around You can loosely cover with a cloth/shawl to block visual stimuli Try different positions Some babies feed better when: Held upright, In cradle or football hold, Rocked gently while latching Let others help soothe first If baby is associating mother with feeding + frustration, let: Father/Grandparent hold and calm the baby first. Once calm, hand over for feeding. Offer short, frequent feeds Don’t force a long feed. Even short 5–7 minute feeds, done more often, help maintain intake.

Red flags: Baby is feeding very little for >12–18 hours Fewer wet diapers Persistent vomiting Fever, lethargy Weight gain concerns If the fussiness continues despite trying the above, an in-person consultation helps to check latch, oral cavity, and weight.
