Nurse early and often – at least 10 times per 24 hours. Don't skip feedings (even at night). Nurse on baby's cues ("on demand"). If baby is very sleepy: wake baby to nurse every 2–3 hours, allowing one longer stretch of 4–5 hours at night. Allow baby to finish the first breast before offering the other side.

At feeding times they may react negatively to attempts to feed them, and refuse to eat. [3] Other symptoms include head turns, crying, difficulty in chewing or vomiting and spitting whilst eating. Many children may have feeding difficulties and may be picky eaters, but most of them still have a fairly healthy diet.
