milk from bottle
I am not sure what came over nat now. She is rejecting milk from the bottle or in fact milk itself? Helper simply gave in to her whims and fancies and serves her what she wants which at this stage is juices. We are resorting to feed milk by the spoon. That didn't work very well either. Neither does on the rocks, heated, gluose fortified work.The only way she takes her milk is straight.. Straight from the source! She would wait till I reach home to have her night feeds. Because of this has been sleeping late, but this doesn't stop her from wanting milk in the wee hours! Am still waking up 2 to 3 times every night! Help!

Hahah, welcome.
ReplyDeleteI went thru that phase with Kayden. At that time, I was already weaning him off the breasts, he's already more than 1yo.
For him, I realised its the taste that matters. I bought every single tin of milk of every brand. In the end, where I nearly gave up, my friend shared with me some Gain IQ for her kids. Super super happy it worked, and he loved it, even until now. No matter how full, he will still finish up a bottle before sleep at night :)
For him, it was the taste that mattered. Initially, I tried changing bottles and cups - spouts, strwas, cups, nipples of different brands (eg Pigeon, Avent) etc...
Guess u'll have to trial and error to find the root cause. Of course for helpers, its easier to just give in, cos its tough too in their position to force your child. Good luck! :)
