PLZ Help with 8 month old and solids!!!
I'm desperate at this point. Please, anyone who can help. Anything. I feel like I'm at the end of my rope, I'm nearly to the point of frustrated tears.
My 8 month old has always had issues with her bottle feeding. She finishes her bottles about 5% of the time. She's on 6oz (180ml) every three hours.
She doesn't cry for food. EVER. I once let her tell me when she was hungry and she only had 3 bottles that were 4oz (120ml) and no solids that day when she was 6 months old.
She also has always choked on her bottles. She's still on the first flow teat and STILL chokes. She has reflux and has had it her whole life so she's on meds for that. Before she was on it she would only drink 2oz at every feed and scream the house down.
Now she's refusing her solids and still not finishing her bottles. Just trying to keep her attention to even take bites is a NIGHTMARE.
She woke up every 2hrs last night for feeds because she was STARVING. And still didn't finish any of those bottles.
She's not acting lethargic, she's not extra fussy, she's exploring and trying to crawl and everything. She's tired but that's because she's so hungry she's waking up at night. Nappies are all wet and she's pooping every day or every other day. She's slightly constipated but she always has been a bit because of her reflux meds.
What do I do?! 😭😭😭😭😭😭
