Babies: 6 - 9 Months

Bottle refusal

Hello! My daughter is 6 months and has all the sudden this last month being difficult when it comes to the bottle. Nothing has changed. But she was turn away from the bottle so we tried a different bottle which seemed to help but still was turn away we tried to up the nipple flow but it was too fast. She has been on Alimentum since April. She used to eat 4+ ounces every feeding and has since been like 1.5-2.5 ounces during the day a 4-5 oz bottle when she is half asleep. She’s on solids too but takes 32-34 oz all together food and bottle but I need advice on how to make her relax and want the bottle and not fight it every feeding

    Pretty sure it’s normal for them to do that and refuse it sometimes. You can’t force her. Sounds like she’s getting enough. You can always ask her doctor too.
