Topic: 10mth old rejecting milk feeds? Posted: 01 September 2008 at 1:20pm |
Hi there
Just wanting reassurance that I shouldn't worry really.
Lauren has not had a milk feed since Friday night. She takes a few swigs and then throws it away. It is a screaming match that I have given up on to tell the truth!
She didn't eat much over the weekend at all solids wise, but today she has been eating her solids quite well. I have also been giving her yoghurt to keep her dairy intake up. She also drinks tonnes of water if I let her, like she will scull back a whole 200mls at once if I give her the chance.
Should I worry about her not taking her formula? I guess if she is eating and drinking everything else I shouldn't worry too much?
She is teething big time at the moment, I can see a couple of blisters on her gums where the teeth have come up and then gone down again. I know when they teeth they can go off their food, but to go off milk feeds for 3 days seems quite a long time to me?
TIA

Oh really fattarts, thats interesting??!! I have noticed since she turned 10 mths, she has become a bit more of a madam, eg when she doesn't get her way and she's becoming so much more independant to a certain degree.
Guess I just have to roll with it then.
I might offer her the formula in a cup with a straw too.
