Food!!

Hey guys is anyone else having food issues? My daughter is having days where she just doesn’t want any food, will happily take snacks but no meals, she just wants milk, other days she’s really good and will eat everything I put in front of her. I’ve tried her with food before she has her bottles so she’s hungry but still having a bit of a fight. Anyone else struggling? I’m so worried cause we have to drop milk in 2 months.

Yep, going through this right now, he’s 11 months exactly. Yesterday had a few snacks but completely refused other food.

@Alisa this is my first bubba do you know if we have to stop milk dead on 1 or is it okay to keep formula going till we’ve made sure food is fully established?

It’s my first child as well, you don’t have to stop milk at 1, if it’s breastmilk you can continue as long as you want, but they don’t need formula past that age. From my understanding though there should be less formula/breastmilk offered as they need to start getting more calories from food. They can then have cow’s milk as a drink but also not necessary - water is just as good as some babies don’t like cow’s milk. NHS says to just keep offering food and it’s normal to have days like that. I decided to try to just offer him food, no pressure, not try to have him open his mouth and see what happens, if he starts eating like that.
