The last 24 hours, though, something seems to have switched in her. I tried that before with success. I will do it again today. I think I have to breastfeed only for a few days and retrain him!

This happened with my bub, I would express a bit and then put her on and she was fine. Got sick of having to express a bit though so I'd put her on earlier to feed before my boobs got too full and that worked too.
My 5 week old does this sometimes when he has a burp or wind. I usually get up and walk around as changing position often gets the burp up, if that doesn't work, I slowly massage his tummy in a clockwise circle. I had a friend who's baby had this problem constantly and she later found out that her baby had silent reflux, so monitor it and see what you think.
My son did this when my supply was really low which was especially at the end of the day, or if he had wind. She's now 8. I found with my daughter it was always to do with flow. Either too fast or too slow. Generally in the am my milk would bucket out causing her to gulp too fast and end up very gassy.
Then in early eve my letdown would take forever and she got angry and tired at having to work so hard for it. As brismum said, try expressing til your letdown happens then put her on, you'll know if it's too fast as she will be swallowing very rapidly so let the letdown drain a little before putting her on.
If it's too slow she'll be stoked you've done all the hard work for her; Hope that makes sense! I had some terrible days before figuring this out. But by about 6 months she could handle it either way. Does she seem distressed or distracted? I found with my daughter at about this age she was taking in a lot more around her so if she wasn't overly hungry she would constantly pull away and squirm trying to look around then cry to be put back on when she'd finished.
This generally occurs between months , per Dr. In my experience, my baby hitting me was more of a soft, subtle, and habitual action that was done for just a minute or two during each breastfeeding session. It occurred most often when my children would start to nod off to sleep.
So do you need to do anything about a hitting baby at this point? This is up to you. Some babies flail their arms or fling them about rather aimlessly while feeding. This can be accompanied by leg kicks too. These actions may sometimes make them lose their latch on the breast. It is difficult for you to get them to latch again while avoiding their flailing arms.
