Hi ladies, I've not been on here for a while so hello and hope you're all ok?
I'm having trouble getting my little man to eat! He will be 8 months next Saturday and we've been trying since he was about 5 1/2 months. I've tried absolutely everything including my own puréed food, jars/pouches and blw. He is now picking things up and putting them in his mouth and he will eat fruit pots but it's so frustrating!
He has been poorly pretty much for the past two months so that's not helping and e has dropped his milk intake too. At the moment he is still having 5 bottles in the day and two in the night!! I was hoping by now his milk feeds would have dropped. I just can't get him to eat even if he's not had much milk he's still not that interested.
Anyone had the same problem?! He has a milk allergy so is on nutramigen formula and currently this is our routine
7.30 milk
8.30 breakfast
11 milk
1 lunch
2 milk
5 milk
6 dinner
7.30 milk and bed.
My hopes were that as he ate more we would be able to wait longer between milk feeds and therefore drop feeds. I've tried doing his bottles a bit later as he never really makes a fuss but even if I get his 2pm bottle to 3pm he still creates for one at 5pm!!
Any ideas?!! I never had this trouble with my daughter. She just ate!! X
