IN REPLY TO: 4 month old refuse bottle
AUTHOR: Clari
Hi,
My son is 3 1/2 month old and a very fussy eater as well. He stops at 2 oz and takes literally over an hour to finish a 4 oz bottle. My ped suggested giving him 2 tps rice cereal but I am having second thoughts not because maybe that is filling him up as well. So by the looks of it your daughter is getting max 15 oz formula a day? My son is getting about 20-24 if I am lucky.
I thought trying another formula is absolutely the last resort , which formula are you using? Maybe try to feed her after 3 or 3 1/2 hours even if it takes 8 times of feeding and see what happens. Make sure she burps thru the feeding too.
Good luck
