Baby drink milk only when she sleeps.

Mummies anyone experiencing LO only wanna drink milk when she sleep? And not always successful. In the end we started solid earlier, but all the more she dont want to drink alamak Milk intake drop from 800-400ml! That is almost half… and the gap between milk is 6hours,10-12 hours kind. Such a stressful journey But she eats solid super well! LO is now 5.5 months I even bought the bottle feeding aversion from rowena bennett. The solution is to stop solid temporary. I am abit scared to follow this method in case baby in the end become dehydrated. Please help!!

I think there is a period of time my baby had bottle aversion cause she will cry if she see milk bottle I think partly due to her reflux that makes her to unpleasant experience but after coaxing her she got better.

I'll follow my LO cues. her milk intake will drop too if she eats solids AND she doesn't eat solids well🤣 i believe babies are smart enough to know if they are hungry, needs milk or solids😆

Thanks for sharing.At least,I feel slightly relieved.It is really nerve wracking when I see her intake doesn't increase and the polyclinic Dr insist that need to drink about 700ml to 740ml even though started on solids.

Try mixing solid with milk? Also just curious. What solids did u start feeding u LO?

I started with this Breakfast : pumpkin / carrot / apple / broccoli /potato puree - approx 10-30ml depending on her intake No lunch Tea time : fruits in feeder Dinner : hipp cereal approx 6 tsp After her milk intake drop i let the school feed lunch. Then the gap of milk is even longer 😴

hi Tania, what solids do you feed your LO and how much per day?

I see. sch lunches usually fixed timing. the gap might cause your kid to not 'crave' for milk later. it's normal for babies to slightly wean off milk once you start solids. perhaps you can try adding some milk in her cereal? i feel that tea time makes your baby full with the extra food. maybe you can skip it?
