QuoteReplyTopic: 9 months and refusing bottle Posted: 28 December 2008 at 6:29am
My princess has been a bottle baby since she was 5 months old, recently she dropped down to 3 a day
However the last 2 days she will have about 140-160 in the morning and then thats it , maybe another 20mls tops during the day
Is this normal at her age?
I ended up giving her rice cereal with milk before bed last night to fill her up but shes only getting around 200mls a day now instead of 500mls she had before
Anyone else had this..is it a stage..i've tried a cup she drinks water from but she only has a few gulps. She eats really really well and seems to only want solids and had a yogurt at lunch for calcium
not much advice sorry - we have got something similar too! Sophie is also on 3 x 200ml a day and it is a miracle if she drinks more than half . I tend to give her a 10 min break and then have another go.
I am also wondering if she doesn't like the flavour - have moved her up to stage 2 in the last month.
Good luck!! Hope someone else has some more helpful suggestions than me!
She has her moments!! She didn't have a sleep yesterday afternoon (just sang Christmas songs for an hour and a half) so was a right little $%&# for her dad at bedtime . She was bundled in with no milk and no story (some how he did manage to clean her teeth ) but she was asleep within about 5 minutes!!
my boy did the same at 9mnth...............i brought 4 different cups (oh so not cheap) and he drunk happily out of the one he choose...........he was mr independent and wanted to have big boy cup like mum and dad...............is she eating solids fine? i wouldnt stress too much about it but try the cup see how it goes.......good luck
