Illness or teething?: This is a typical time for babies to start to have teething behaviors, this might be one cause of the decrease in breast milk intake. Is he feeding at the breast? or pumping bottles? Good wet diapers? Weight percentiles growing ok? Keep an eye out for other symptoms, might be an illness coming on. Painful feedings? Fever? Drooling? Contacts with illness?
