Just bouncing ideas around!

Ok,
Here is my problem -

Mhairi is almost 5 months old and has been on Aptamil since 1 week old. She was BF before that.

She gets fed at - 7am, 11am, 3pm, 7pm and a dreamfeed at 10pmish.

Each time she only takes 3-5 oz. It's a red letter day if she finishes a bottle or takes 6 oz!

Even at her 7am feed she only takes 4oz.

So, I'm wondering, do different formulas taste different? Would it be worth changing her to Hipp/C&G to see if she will take more?

She's between the 25th and 50th centile, and the HV is happy with her weight.

I just feel that at this rate I'll be lucky to have her weaned by the time she goes to school!

Any opinions gratefully received!

Is she a lazy eater? (please don't take offense, I don't know how lazy eater's act)

You could try her on different milks once a week, see how she goes? OR, they do formula's in those little drink cartons, you could try her on one of those, different ones, a day, see if she changes her routine?
