Quick help on milk refusing please

6 replies

Hi
My ds is 9 months and is refusing milk he has had 1 bf this morning and maybe up to 3oz from a bottle today, he eats well
He started being a bit funny on Sunday - I think he is a bit under the weather, could he just be telling me milk isn't the best thing to have? Or should I be more worried?
He has just sicked up a yoghurt about 1/2-3/4 hour after tea

Sounds like he may be unwell. How is he now? Has he had another bf?

Sounds like he is unwell. Bless him. I found it best to Keep offering water and breast and toast regularly....
Good luck. Hope he feels better soon. I would avoid dairy if he is sicking up. Breast milk is fine - if he will accept it if course!!

Read that as breast on toast...Grin

^^Agree. Avoid all dairy apart from BM Smile

Thanks for the replies
I had fallen asleep
He went to sleep happily, think if I was still totally bf him I wouldn't know he hadn't had much

Ds slept all night as usual (so guessing not too poorly as would've woken up with tummy pains)
He had done a gross gross diarrhoea poo Sad though
Has has bf and back to sleep then toast for breakfast, so far so good
Plain foods it is today and docs later if he doesn't seem better

I'd offer a bf every now and then. It will help him get better more quickly, especially as he is keeping it down Smile

This is good information on what to do when they are sick.
