Babies: 9 - 12 Months

A baby food/formula question

Hi all.  I have a quick question.  DS has recently started on Stage 2 foods and has lost nearly all interest in his bottle.  Anyone have any ideas other than cutting the baby food back?  Maybe bottle first, then food?  TIA, J

Re: A baby food/formula question

  • Yes, absolutely bottles first. They are the primary source of nutrition until 1 year old. We give bottles first, wait 30 minutes, then give solids. We have only noticed a decrease on formula intake when we did solids first.

  • I'm going through the same situation with DD!! For some reason, she likes drinking out of a sippy cup much much better than the bottle.  She drips a bit on the sippy cup, but can drink about 2 oz out of it.  It's a struggle to get her to take 2 oz out of a bottle..at times.

    GL!

  • Yeah, when I noticed it I made sure he was taking a bottle when he was hungry. Then if he was still hungry we would give him the solids. GL
