Your baby wants more milk
Sometimes when milk supply dips the baby may bite and pull back, trying to get another milk ejection from the breast.
In this regard, why does my baby twist and turn while feeding?
a neuro hormone called oxytocin which promotes milk production. So the more your baby twiddles, the more more milk he or she gets, and the healthier mom’s milk supply. Twiddling can also be very comforting and may help your baby nurse well.
Furthermore, why is my baby thrashing around while breastfeeding?
A common reason for a healthy baby to scream and arch back during breastfeeds is because they are expressing frustration. I find this typically occurs when the baby has finished feeding but the mother persists in trying to get him to reattach the breast because she does not think he has fed for long enough.
Why is my baby so tense when feeding?
What causes high muscle tone in babies? The position of a baby in the uterus, invasive birthing practices, pain or neurological disorders can all affect muscle tone. Babies who are very hungry can also have high muscle tone, including newborn babies or older babies who are very underweight.
Why does my baby move around so much while eating?
Some babies drink very fast, and their stomachs expand too quickly. This makes it easier for them to regurgitate, especially if they are very active and start moving around right after feeding. If milk is coming out of the bottle too quickly, your baby will drink too much just to satisfy her need to suck.
