Milk strike

My almost 3months old is going through a milk strike ohase due to acid reflux ... any advise? Im going crazy... if hes super hungry he will drink 50mls and then start crying when i want to make him drink more so he drink 50mls every hour or so. He usually take 160mls and before that he can latch on for 20mins before he take the bottle. Im worried for him. How long will this milk strike thingy last?

My baby drank 40-60MLs every 3-4 hourly at 2M (Before that she’s drinking 100MLs/2 hourly). It continued all the way till 3.5M (currently) where she started drinking 80-120MLs/1-1.5hours. Don’t force if he doesn’t want to drink anymore. As long as the diaper output is good, it shouldn’t be a big problem.

Yup, as long as diaper output is ok = not dehydrated then it shouldn’t be a worry. Some mummies mentioned that babies tend to have a leap where they get ‘sick’ of milk 😄
