10 month old nursing strike & not eating much solid food yet

2 replies

My 10 month old hasn't fed since I put her down at 8pm last night. She has a slight cold but can breath through her nose and may be teething, so I know they could be reasons.

She's had a small amount from a cup (has never taken bottle) but not much.

She has bitten me or flatly refused when I've tried to feed her. Poor thing is miserable. And my boobs are so painful even after expressing. I have a rubbish hand pump which doesn't work v well.

Anybody else had this? Any tips?

I've got a docs appt at 4 but I'm worried she'll get dehydrated by then. She's blw and never seemed to actually eat very much (but that's a whole other issue)...

Could you give her some water with a syringe if youre worried about dehydration?

Phew she's feeding now - sneakily got her to feed while still sleepy from her nap.

Thanks for the advice though!
