Has baby been evaluated for GER - reflux? Some babies with acid reflux are
in such pain whenever they eat, that they self-limit intake. Does mom hear
"reswallowing"? Solids are maybe staying down better. The right medicine
might help him improve his eating.
I'd also want to rule out that the milk supply really isn't very generous
after all, with only short feedings and a long stretch of sleep...

I'm stumped and I need help with this one. I had a lovely young couple
referred to me by our head of paeds. The baby Eliott has started refusing
to feed over the last month and has only put on 200 grams in 6 weeks with
periods of weight loss in between. His feeds last about a minute or two
with a great deal of popping on and off the breast. He gets one let down
worth of milk and then gets fussy. When he was in my office he had his
best feed in a month and then proceded to get very agitated. Mother states
that he remains like this for the entire day and into the night.
