Ok I've posted this a few times before but then at least I had friends and family around me. Now that I'm alone in Sydney (apart from DH and DD) I'm finding it really hard. DD is beginning to refuse food again. Today for breakfast she had 2 soldiers of toast and cream cheese some pureed pear and a teaspoon of yoghurt.Everything else got spat out. Meals are based on her watching the night garden so that I can get some food into her which is so wrong I know. I'm still breastfeeding once in day and once before bedtime, which I'm trying to cut out. Shes now 1 and I thought this would get better.
I'm so worried she's going to waste away. I know they decide when they're hungry but this is taking the mick. Plus its making me feel very low.
She drinks as much cows milk as i can get down her plus water and watered down juice although not enough to decrease her appetite.
Shes walking now and really active - where the hell does she get the energy from without any food?
I know I've got to chill out but its so hard...can someone offer me a kick up the arse?
BTW anyone who knows me by now, I know I haven't changed my ID yet after saying I would but thats how stressed I am!
