Andrea, I'd bet dollars to donuts that this baby has some other issue going
on, as in a respiratory, or cardiac issue. I would get this baby a very
thorough physical IMMEDIATELY.

A baby will eat if all is normal and well. If there are underlying
respiratory issues, or cardiac issues, the baby will show other signs, like
being reluctant to eat, grunting, etc.

See Barbara Wilson-Clay's posts on this subject...which are numerous and
very enlightening.

Kind regards, Kathleen
