A member asked:
My daughter is premature born at 31 weeks. she is 5 weeks old and she is straining during feeds and doesn't finish her bottle. how can we help her?

Weight gain?: If this is happening with normal weight gain, you may be overestimating her feeding needs. If weight gain is inadequate, ask your doctor for help - lots of different issues could be responsible, heartburn (reflux) being one of the most common.
