Appetite Changes!

Hi everyone.. Has anyone noticed that their 4 month old’s appetite has just suddenly decreased? My little girl used to DOWN every single bottle we gave her, but is now suddenly leaving anywhere between 30-90mls for most bottles. She seems fine otherwise.. no fussing or crying during the feed, just simply isn’t interested in finishing it!

Yes!! Our girl hasn’t been very interested in eating lately. She just wants to play and talk all day. I’m glad she’s happy and seems ok but it’s so stressful because she’s only in the 21st percentile so I don’t want her to drop any further. We’ve been sneaking ounces in after she falls asleep in our arms which I know is kind of frowned upon but it’s the only way she will drink enough during the day.

@Elise Why is it frowned upon?

We did a sleep training class and the coach told us it can create bad habits. The goal is for baby to actively drink her bottle while she’s awake and aware. But I mean, I’m ok with some poor habits as long as she’s getting enough calories.

@Elise oo interesting! thanks for the info!

Yes! I have heard that teething can have something to do with it

Teething most likely
