Not drinking all bottles

Anyone else’s LO going through a stage where they’re not drinking their bottles, turning away from them, being frustrated when trying to feed them? And only having like 3/4 bottles a day but not the full amount they were once taking? :/

My breastfeed baby has been doing this for a few weeks now

Yeah, I found this with my 1st child at this age. I put it down to them getting ready for weaning and their taste buds changing 🤣 but that’s just me 🤣 xx

My baby’s breastfed but the same! He’s only drinking for a fraction of the time he was, but drinking more frequently for a total longer time per day.

My little one was getting so fussy, not eating the whole bottle, turning away, pushing it away... we found out that she doesn't want to be held anymore while feeding... now the best position for her is laying down on her back... she takes the full feed like a dream 🤦🏻‍♀️ little weirdo 🤣🤣🥰

@Kata oh right, strange 😂 wonder if he wants to sit up and have the bottle then now 🤔 or I could try it like that as well 🤣

My baby boy was the same. We went up a teat size (MAM bottles) which helped!

Going up a teat size but also I think he was teething- which can go both ways. We have a weight check today.

Omg I was literally just about to write the same post!!! The past few days my LO isn’t finishing any of his bottles!! Used to drink 8oz everything 3.5 hours now only drinking 5/6 if we’re lucky! I do give him rusk in the mornings but he never eats much of it .. stressing me right out!!

@Donna yeah... she doesn't take them now if she is in our lap... everything is too interesting I think... being on her back, lying down, she eats like an angel... I really don't know why... 🤣

We've just been through the same. Upped the teat size and he's back to full bottles most of the time again xx

He’s doing better again with his bottles but seems to have dropped down to 4 a day when he was on 5 a day before! X
