DH thinks I am and I should just let him regulate himself. He is just turning 10months and we have been in a real battle with him and milk since weaning at 5.5 months.
He loves food and eats a good variety - he is also on the 98th centile for weight and off the top for height. He will drink one 5oz bottle of milk in the morning (usually) and has 3oz on his weetabix. This is all he will have. He drinks water from a cup throughout the day and refuses milk but up till now he would have a bedtime bottle of around 5pz too. Now he won't even have this, not from a cup either. He goes mad if you try to make him and will sometimes sip at an ounce. I'm uncomfortable with the lack of milk and think we should do something, not sure what, to make him have some. Dh thinks give him lots of calcium in his food and forget it as everyone's getting stressed. All babies are different and maybe he just doesn't like it. I am very mindful of how much he should be having so we are disagreeing here. He is our 2nd baby but number 1 loved milk so it's a new issue for us
