Baby refuses breast for milk

0 to 1 years

My 3 month old baby refuses to feed lying in my lap. She starts crying and literally tries to escape as soon as I put her in my lap for breastfeed. She takes feed while she is sleeping and if she realises she in my lap again she did the same. Is anyone else facing the same? If it normal? What can be done? Please help.

Hi, I was facing the same issue when my baby was 4 months old.. she jus wouldn't feed when wide awake.. for a month it went on ..now it's back to normal, my daughter is 6 months old now. My advice to you would be, don't force her.. calm her down when she fidgets and starts crying, sing to her or play for a while and then try again. Don't stop feeding her, jus try, try and try. It was really frustrating for me and didn't know whom to approach, I Googled and realised my baby wasn't the only one.
