Food baby

Hey mamas! I could really use some advice or if I’m doing something wrong, feel free to tell me! My baby girl is 7 months and 9 days old. We started solids with BLW and she’s been doing pretty well. She’s on formula, but ever since she hit 6 and a half months, she’s been refusing her bottles and just wants to eat food instead. Right now, she’s only drinking around 12 ounces of formula a day, and I’m kinda worried. I’m a first-time mom, so I’d really appreciate any kind and honest advice. Thanks a ton!

Did you ask her doctor?

@Roz not yet, last time we saw her doctor, she told me to give a solids twice a day and then offer formula, she never mentioned whether before giving him the food or after

Hiya has your baby started other liquids as I was told as long as baby is eating and getting any liquids it’s good as your baby will be getting the fats and nutrients from the food not just the milk :) x

could u put some of the milk inside the foods to help also? FTM also just an idea x

Thank you so much!🥹🥹

My baby will only drink milk before the meal then usually play for a few more minutes before sitting down to eat

I would definitely speak with her pediatrician but I’ve always gone by the saying “food before one is just for fun” aka they should be getting plenty of milk and the food they eat is just extra
