Going from loving weaning to hating it?

[hugsy]

Well i started earlly weaning as i thought she was ready, seemed i was as first few weeks she devoured everything i gave her and never spat any out or got sick but now she seems to have decided she just wants her bottles?

yesterday she wouldnt have her baby rice for breckfast as usual so gave her bottle and then a bit of bananna pudding and she ate it so thought maybe the rice is now too bland but she wouldn't eat her dinner either

the same today tried rice in morniing but wouldnt have it just her bottle then gave the banann couple of hours after morning bottle to see if that helped but nope shillwouldn't take it, also offered it at her 12pm bottle but nope nothing

She seems to hate sitting in her highchair so think thats half the problem , she has been a right whinge bag too so maybe she is feeling out of sorts but not sure if i should stop trying with the food for a week or so or keep it up?

its just so strange on sunday i was scraping every last bit out of th bowl she wanted so much sitting there mouth open wide and now its firmly closed for food not matter when i try give it

Apparently it is very common for babies to go on a weaning strike shortly after starting weaning. My nephew at solids for a week and then refused them for two weeks before deciding he wanted them again. Don't worry about it, she may just not be quite ready. Xx

Oh thanks hun good to know it can be normal, she finnished her dinner but wasnt overly happy about it, had to discract with toys and lots of here comes d plane with silly noises, she was taking it but not as intusiastically as before but im afraid of her starting to see dinner time as a bad time instead of happy time

Keep trying hun. My LO has had tonsillitis recently & went off her food as well as being a whinge bag so she maybe feeling out of sorts.

I'm going through the exact same thing with Joshua now. He started weaning great and would eat most of th things I gave him. Now he will only eat his breakfast and then just wants breastmilk for the rest of the day again. He is teething again though so I am wondering if that could be part of the reason he has gone off his food. Might go see HV tomorrow and see what she says. Still keep offering food and when she is ready she will take it again. Don't try and force it because as you say, you don't want baby thinking of meal time in a negative way. She will let you know when she is ready again.

She is still young so don't worry too much at this point.

I think all babies must go through this phase where they go up and down!! Angel absolutely loved her food when we first started weaning, she'd take anything with a minimum of fuss and I hadn't found something she disliked. Then she started getting fussy and not liking being in the chair and refused to touch anything. Then every single meal last week she wolfed it down, now this week she's back to being fussy and not eating much. I'm trying not to get worked up or too worried about it as the first year is really exploring but it's still stressful xx

oh so glad im not alone

do most people givethe food warm or cold?

We didnt really have this apart from when he wasnt well but i did a mixture of TW and BLW and didnt stress if he didnt want much food. They get nutrition from milk mostly until they are 1

yeah id not worry, just make sure they get their milk and offer the food, if they dont eat it then just let them be. its only stressing and trying to force them that can make mealtimes a bad thing
