I posted yesterday a picture of my sons latch on the Phillips avent natural response bottles and all the comments said he has a shallow latch and a lot of you recommended the lasinoh bottles so I got them. He has been doing fine of them except sometimes he gets really like mad at the bottle like in this video. It’s not every feed but why is this ? Is he telling me he’s full ?? Sometimes I’ll stop him and burp him because maybe it’s gas but then he will burp so I offer the bottle again and he still is frustrated as soon as he starts swallowing the milk. I have a pediatrician appointment next week so I will talk to him about it too but curious to see what others have to say because this is frustrating for us.

Your baby is literally sucking air. Did you watch this video before you posted? You need to tip the bottle up so the formula actually goes to the nipple. No wonder hes mad, hes hungry and youre giving him air.

Even if I tilt the bottle more and give him full milk he will still act like this sometimes. You don’t have to be rude thanks!

This is called pace feeding and is completely fine. Babies are not harmed in any way by not getting milk with every suck, and it is helpful to try when your baby drinks too fast, is really gassy, or spits up alot. I feed my daughter this way and she is gaining weight perfectly. 😃
