My DD will be 8 months old next week and I'm concerned that she is not eating enough. Been weaning for two months now (started weaning at 6 months) but she won't eat anything lumpy or textured and bearly eats half a pouch a day. We struggled with bottle feeding as I exclusively breast fed her up until 6 months old. She has only just started taking a bottle but only has 3floz a day as well as a few breast feeds. She was small when she was born on the 9th percentile and since 4 months has stayed within the 25th percentile. I am worried that she hasn't got an appetite and will grow to be underweight or be a fussy eater. My boyfriend says I worry too much however after 2 months of weaning I would have thought she would be eating much more than she is. Any advice would be much appreciated. X
