Unsettled bottle feeds! Rss

My 3 month old has been really fussy during her bottle feeds (she is formula fed) for the past few weeks. It seems to have gotten alot worse over the last week though. Her behaviour is as follows:

Wriggling constantly
Turning her head from side to side
Kicking her legs
Trying to shove her hand in her mouth while feeding

Does anyone know what this could be? Has anyone experienced the same thing with their bub and figured out what was causing it?

We're thinking that maybe she needs a faster flowing teat??
My little one did similiar thing when she is getting teeth i put bonjella or natural teething liquid called brauer teething liquid before her bottle? maybe growing teeth?
I would have to agree sounds like teething. My little girl is 4 months tomorrow and is doing the same thing. My oldest son got his first two teeth a day apart at 8 weeks and his brother wasn't far behind.
The only other thing it could be is not liking the bottles or the formula. But I would go with the teething thing first and try some baby gel or some natural teething liquid like brauer or infan't friend this one has a few other things that it helps with like bowel and colic. I used it when my girl had colic real bad and it worked still use it when she is irritated.
My boy did the same thing and it was mainly his teeth. We also worked out that he didn't like to be held for his bottles, so we would have to prop him on a pillow on the lounge and feed him his bottle that way.

Reflux?

Teat size was same prob with me too. at 4 months old he now on 6 plus teat, much happier. They want to eat faster so have more play time?smile
