Bottle Battles

[Mummy2R&K]

DD is just about 4.5months now.

For the past few days it's been such a battle to get her to have her bottles.

She will finish probably every second one and take it no problems.....but others she will prob only take 80mls.

However, When I start giving her most of the bottles, she screams and screams and thrashes about as though it is stinging her, or its hurting her?? She is a little husky atm, but I've put that down to her catching DS's cough/cold.

I can see on the side of her mouth, on the inside of her cheeks little white marks as though as she's been biting them with her toothless grin??

What do you think it is? I can't see anything in the back of her throat that could be causing a 'stinging' as such.

I swear she's got those bottom two teeth I can see just under the gums, but surely this isn't it, as 1) she sucks her dummy and 2) still screams if i squirt some milk into her mouth so its not touching her gums.

It's just so weird :confused::confused:

I am curious about the white marks inside her mouth too, might be worth a trip to the Dr's just incase she does have some sort of irritation in her mouth, especially if she's husky. But I might be paranoid as my DD gets toncilitis and fussing with feeds and huskyness was the signs for her.

The only other thing I can think of is if she's started solids and not hungry?

Hope she settles down soon :hugs:

ETA, also, could it be the teat flow?

THank you for replying.

The white marks just look like as if I would bite my own gums on the insides of my cheeks if I was say chewing gum.......weird hey.

She hasn't started solids yet, she's not interested in them and is 4.5months.

I've changed the teats about 3 weeks ago to faster ones (no3) and she was fine.

I'm trying to get her into a Dr around here but :banghead::banghead::banghead: the only times I can get are at 9pm at night.
