MILK

Hey everyone! Has anyone else noticed their bub drinking less milk? My little one is 7 months, almost 8 (AUG 11), and recently he hasn’t been drinking as much as he used to. We’ve only introduced one solid meal a day so far, but sometimes he’ll only take 50-60ml instead of his usual 180-200ml. He’s still having a normal number of wet nappies, but I’m a bit concerned. Has anyone experienced this?

Omg my little one is the same... i was concerned but he is pooping and having wet nappies. So i shouldn't be? I'm lucky if he gets 100ml per bottle. We are at 4 bottles a day and 1 solid meal which usually ends up on the floor 🤣

Yeah my 7 month old does the same thing I tried to offer small bottles more frequently that seems to work But most food ends up on the floor or the bib 😂

@Maja i guess as long as theyre healthy and weeing and pooping we shouldn’t stress! 😬

@Cassie ooo maybe ill try that method! Why they always chucking food on the floor 🧐

My almost 8mo is similar (august 14) but I do a mix of BLW and purees, so even if he chucks all the blw snacks, he still has a puree after! We've also been on solids since 4 mo with Dr approval

I found a solution guys, he drink much better with straw cups than milk bottles 🙈

How did you get him to learn to drink from a straw? We've been trying for the past month but he still hasn't gotten the hang of it? 😅

@Maja I started with a regular straw, filled it with water, covered one end with my finger, then put the other end in his mouth and slowly let the water out so he could feel how it works. Did that for about a week, and also let him play around with a straw bottle. We tried a few type of bottles, but the smaller straws worked best, like BBox or Grosmimi!

@Maja i also showed him how to suck with duck face 🤣🤣 and let him mimic haha

Thank you so much @Carissa I was able to teach him over the weekend!!!
