Problems feeding my 18 week old!

4 replies

My baby is 18 weeks and it is such a struggle to get her to take her bottle she was feeling really well taking 7oz bottle now she goes through periods which is normally every 4 weeks of only taking 3 sometimes 4 oz's and then fights the bottle and gets so cross! I'm so worried that she isn't gettin enough! She done it last week and had got back onto it again but is at the same again the last few days! Has anyone ever had this with there little ones! I'm a 1st time mum!

Does she have any teeth coming through?

Jay0089 · 03/08/2015 21:03

She is chewing everything but no sign of any yet! She's been doing this from she was 4 weeks old! I've tried putting teething gel on before a feed to see if that helps but still fights it!

my lo sometimes wont finish bottles if he has too much wind or reflux

Even after loads of wind she still won't finish and she doesn't suffer from reflux! I'm really stuck normally she will take her morning bottle but she only took 3oz of it this morning which isn't like her at all!
