My 8 months old dd has recently started refusing her evening breast feed and I am hoping someone has some advice on how I can get her back to it. I only bf her twice a day: morning and evening (we stopped night feeds around one month ago).
She is in nursery during the day as I am back at work and she gets two bottles of formula while she is there as well as solids. She has 10-12 oz of formula during the day. When she comes home from nursery around 6pm I give her some more solids, then let her play for a bit and then bf her around 7.30 before putting her to bed.
The last 4-5 days she has refused the evening bf, or taken very little. She gets quite grumpy if I persist in trying to get her to eat. She is sleeping through even without this evening bf.
Does anyone have any advice on how I can maintain the evening bf? Should I cut down on the formula during the day or should I give her less solids in the evening? My DH thinks I should just bf her in the morning and give up the evening bf, but I really don?t want to do that if I can help it.
