RE: Baby Fussing at the Breast
My son started doing the same thing at about 2 months. Besides being sure to burp him frequently, I tried different nursing positions untill he found one he was more comfortable in. I had to get rid of our original positions in favor of the old cradle hold (which I didn't even use until he was 5-6 weeks old). Also, he was diagnosed with a mild ear infection shortly after this started, which seemed to be aggravated during nursing because of the changes in pressure, particularly when he was nursing with the infected ear down.
The good news is he grew out of the fussy period and yours will too. The bad news is now at 4 months he's getting more interested in the suroundings, and is constantly turning his head (w/breast in mouth - OUCH!) to see what's going on, or detaching and reattaching many many times during a feeding (but usually after the first eager nursing minutes are past.)
