My 7 month old refusing bottles
Hey everyone 👋🏽
I’m a first time mummy and my 7 month has been refusing his bottles lately. He wakes up at 6am and refuses bottles until 11am. His last would of been at 3:30am. I’ll give him breakfast but sometimes he refuses that too. He’s been like this for a week for and he’s usually he would never say no to his bot bot or food.
Is this normal, is he going through a stage where he has less milk as he stays full for longer??
I thought he may have been teething as he had all the signs start of week, but still no teeth..
He’s has plenty of wet and poo nappies and still super happy so I’m hoping it’s something normal he’s going through..
Would love advice from other mummas 🫶🏼
Thank you 🤍

Also.. has your LO increased how much he's drinking? Mine increased and is drinking 200-240ml every 4 hours. I stopped offering at the 3 hour mark
This makes me feel better. I know they can lose their appetite during teething so hopefully some teeth pop out soon so I know that’s the case 😅 Nah he’s mainly only been drinking 120ml a feed. He might get 160ml in once a day sometimes. He does eat a pouch of puree as well.
My 7month old daughter is the EXACT same 😭 It started when she was teething, it's literally taking 3 weeks for the damn tooth to push through as I can feel it swelling but it hasn't cut through the gum yet. Maybe your little one has a tooth slowly moving through the gums? I also noticed my daughter is very distracted by the world around her so I try to get her to focus on one thing like a toy and she then latches onto the bottle and drinks whole thing 😅 It's super frustrating, I'm hoping it passes.
