A member asked:

Hi dr. my 8 week old makes a clicking sound when bottle feeding, seems to lose suction and i think i can hear lots of air bubbles going down?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sucking problem: You need to check the size of the hole in the nipple & see how fast it is dripping down the formula . Try a nipple with smaller hole & see if it makes a difference, if she is also breast fed does she make the same sound? If yes then you need to take her to her pediatrician or even ENT to make sure that her nose, throat & larynx are ok. Good luck & enjoy your bundle of joy.
