Hi everyone,

I have battled with my daughter since she turned 6months about eating. She was breastfeed till 13 months due to her not wanting food or wanting to transition to cows milk. She finally gave in to the whole cows milk and she still will not eat food. She won’t even eat sweets 99% of the time. We have been telling her doctor and it’s always a “keep trying, don’t force her, it’s suppose to be a fun time” but no real help.

I reached the end of my rope. She has been crying on and off for 2/3 hours at night for a week. Today she started screaming during the day as well. We do not know what to do. We have tried scooping a spoon with food into her mouth and she will spit it up. We set a plate for her and she will toss it to the ground and scream. We limit her milk intake to about 18-20 ounces a day and we can’t do any lower because she will not eat. She was eating 2/3 pouches a day but stopped after a few weeks.

Today we tried less than 15 ounces and it has been a hot mess of endless crying on both ends. I do not look forward to night time anymore. Her dad and I are struggling on what to do. We sent her doctor a message to be referred somewhere but we need help now. We haven’t gotten a full nights rest in so long. We are tired.

Any advice will be helpful, Thanks.
