Dear All

I am a first time mother to my beautiful 5 month old daughter.  She has been bottle fed from being three days old with no problems till around 13 weeks old.  We have been advised to change bottles, teats, milk and we have tried everything but she will not eat unless she is tired.

We've even tried letting her sleep when she's tired, but then she simply doesn;t eat at all!  She was started on solids around four weeks ago and all was going well, however, the llast week ahs seen a deteriortaion in those.

I am now concerned and very tired as each meal is a battle.  Any advice??  Please?? :roll:

Hi
I to had problems with my little one although he was my second he wouldnt have the solids and he wouldnt drink the milk. In the end i changed the milk to omneo comfort and changed the bottles to anti colic ones and he was fine with both of these.
With the food dont force them if they dont want it they will eat when they are hungry just keep trying but dont stress about them not having it you will only make yourself ill.
It will all come together eventually my son was 1 on saturday and he is fine now he loves his food.

Hi, Yeah we tried omneo comfort and she really doesn't like it so we're on Milumil now which she is better on but still not a great feeder.  Like you say though, I will try to be patient and I'm sure she'll be fine!

Thanks for your help  :wink:
