Fussy when nursing

Need advice, ideas, etc... The two days Eli has become fussy while nursing. Mostly during the day, his night time feedings go by without to much drama. He starts nursing but will pull away and cry then go back on. Repeat that several times. I try to burp him thinking that's what is wrong. Sometimes he'll burp others times he doesn't. However that doesn't seem to fix the pulling away and crying. His latch is great and positon is okay as far as I know. Am I doing something wrong?

Maybe overactive letdown? Try expressing some bm before you latch him to get the letdown overwith. Hope you can figure it out!!

Do you think it might be a growth spurt? Alex is just hitting his second.

I had that with ds2...what I did was latch him on and when I felt letdown I unlatched him until the flow slowed down to a drip and then relatched him. it helped a lot.
