Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

Has this ever happened-formula issue

DD has been having up to 30 oz of formula per day for months now....she did NOT decrease her intake when starting solids.  The past couple days she isn't taking near that.  Right now she's only at about 13 oz.  Her food intake is the same, her water intake is the same.  I can't figure out what's wrong!

I'm going to call our pedi tomorrow because I'm paranoid like that.  Usually she sucks down those 8 oz, but now she takes maybe half and doesn't want it anymore.

WTH?

Re: Has this ever happened-formula issue

  • My guys do this on occasion.  Some days they're formulaholics and the next day they barely touch it. If it goes on more than a day or so in a row I'd call the pedi, but if it's a one-off thing I wouldn't worry about it.  LOs can be such a mystery.  Hope all is well.

  • My DD would really decrease her intake when she had an ear infection. She wasnt a water drinker so I cant comment on that. But she would only take 2 oz of breast milk at a time at daycare. No fevers, nothing. Just the bad intake! HTH

  • My DD did this after a major growth spurt. The doctor said as long as she was getting 12oz formula a day that was fine. Trust your gut though... if she seems irritable or "off" take her to the pedi.
