My DD is now 7 and half months old and since she was 2 months old i have had trouble feeding her.
She was diagnosed with silent reflux at first but after medication, blood tests, an endoscopy and PH probe we were told that her reflux wasn't as bad as they thought and that there is no need for medication (not that it was doing much).
Over the last couple of months her weight has been dropping and it's almost impossible to get her to drink anything.
Feeding her solids is becoming more than a task and by the end of it all leaves both mother and baby very stressed out.
Her milk intake now is less than 8oz a day and that is only an estimate - some days she has less. she will only drink around 40z and the rest i have to add to her food.
To be honest i have no routine as she never indicates that she is hungry and when i offer her food or drink 90% of the time she refuses it.
I have tried so many things but nothing is working.
