3 months 2nd week baby does not drink milk at usual rate

1. After a sleep through night, wake up in the morning also does not finish 100 ml breast milk. 2. Normally after shower will drink some or +/- 100 ml breast milk but now refuse to drink. 3. During the day also does not drink at normal intervals and drag up to 5 hours before willing to drink. Are these normal?

At this age, there can be a few things I think.. 1. Regression (due to significant milestones eg. Wonder Week) 2. Illness (check for fever and other signs of irritability, and bring baby for a checkup if you’re worried) 3. Gum discomfort (may not have teeth out yet, but the gums are preparing for that so baby finds it painful to suck on the teat and cannot drink for long).
