I imagine that it's the weather too hon, am sure she'll start eating better when it starts getting a bit cooler. Plus you said she's been a bit off colour hasn't she? Probably lost her appetite a bit
Its probably just the heat, its great though that she is drinking all that milk at least you dont really need to worry. I used to think that because Jessica drank the amount of milk summer is drinking that she had a good appetite but see now, omg she is a nightmare at dinner time. Bfast is okay and lunch is okay too but I cant get her to eat meals properly.
I hope her appetite picks up, if you are anything like up here is getting a wee bit cooler. 8)
I agrre its prob the weather i find now that its cooled off slightly shes eating more but when its hotter its mostly milk prob cuz shes more thirsty then hungry?

My daughter is so hard to feed, unless it's fruit of course. She is on whole milk now and has up to 24oz a day, though her doc wants her down to 20oz/day.
I don't push her, but it can be frustrating when she refuses food that I know she likes. The funny thing is, once I do get her to have a taste it's like a light goes on and she realizes "oh yeah, this is yummy!" and she'll take a few more bites, but then refuses again.
So, I'm starting to relax a tad. She is gaining weight and that's the important thing. She's working on a molar right now, along with another tooth so that's probably throwing her off food some. If she's not eating much in the day, then I offer snacks more frequently.
