Hi All I am a mom of almost 10 months old baby girl, I started her solids journey when she turned 6months. She is eating okay but has almost stopped drinking milk. Want to check if anyone else is the same boat or there is any solution to this. I am starting to get worried because she doesn’t drink at nursery and barely drinks anything at home

My little boy is nearly 10 months and he prefers juices and other drinks rather than his usual milk. He only wants it when he wakes up from his night sleep, he is my first baby so I wasn’t sure but a lot of women in my family said it’s normal as he’s tried different things and just prefers them xx

Let me try juices then maybe that will keep her hydrated

Hey! The breast milk/formula is more important for them than the food until 1 year old because of the nutrients it contains. If baby starts to drink under the minimum requirement of bm/formula then it’s usually advised to reduce the food intake to ensure they’re getting the milk they need. Have a research and there should be some supporting info on this. It may also be best to speak to a professional for some tailored advice for your little one. Hope this helps 🤞

My son is very similar. He only drinks the morning bottle (6 ounces) and bed time ( between 4-6 ounces) I spoke to
His doctor and HV they both advised to pressure him for more cause he would literally cry for the midday bottle so we dropped it. He eats well and both professionals
Told me it is perfectly fine
So now he is on 2 bottles a day
3 meals
2 snacks

Thank you so much it helps
