Sometimes when my LO nurses, she pulls her head away while sucking. Is there a reason for this?

My babe does this too. I got the impression that my milk is going to fast, she usually takes a few seconds then goes back.

@katiem2053, she used to do it because of that, but this is different. she pulls my boob with her head and it's usually when I'm on the less full side

How old? Mine does too because she's so aware of sounds now, she's always turning to see who's talking or making noise lol

@bianca_rose, she'll be 6 months friday. she does it for noise too and when her brother is around I have to FIGHT her to stay nursing, but when she does this, she's concentrating very intently on my boib, just pulling it out

Yeah I think they just want to see what's going on, as painful as it is.

I had the same issue and the lactation nurse told me he pulls away because he has a short tongue
