Hi there,
Myy 9 month old daughter has refused milk since 4 months old and weaning has been a nightmare. Long story. As it stands she will usually accept a 4 oz bottle at 10pm via a dream feed and when she wakes up at 4am I will always offer her another bottle, which she tends to only drink a little from.
My question is that I can foresee that I shall have to continue with the dream feed for the foreseeable future but I am getting pressure from my mum, MIL and HV to drop these feeds as a 'normal' baby doesn't need them. My little girl has a relatively small appetite and will sip on water during the day. Am I doing the right thing in continuing with these feeds? Are there any parents out there with older babies who continue to need/demand a night feed which isn't detrimental to the baby?
Advice gratefully received.
