Hi,

Just asking a question for my friend - her DS is so distracted in the day that he will barely feed and does most of his feeding at night.

He's just over 6mo, was up every hour feeding last night. Ex b/f plus now on solids.

Has anyone got any advice as to how to get him to eat more in the day? Sleep when he sleeps isn't really an option for her as she has another under-2 as well.

Thanks!

take him to a quiet place in the house and feed him there

if possible try to make sure he is facing a blank wall

mute the tv if possible if she cannot move to another room

my DD is very distractible and is also 6 months

her best feed is before bed
