A. A cold or stuffy nose can make it difficult for your baby to breathe during breast-feeding. Stress or distraction. Overstimulation, delayed feedings or a long separation from you might cause fussiness and difficulty nursing. A strong reaction from you to being bitten during breast-feeding might have the same effect.
