re: 7.5 mo old not eating dinner

[chocsauce]

Hi, Have any of mn's experienced this. My lo is not eating his dinner, is teething, and prefers to drink water at tea time? He used to eat his dinner, but eversince the teething became worse, he's refusing his dinner, and started drinking alot of water during the day too. He still has his formula 4 times a day as well.

Help?

10mo dd is like this. Sometimes she will wolf it down and others she is not interested at all. Teething does put them off. As long as he is having milk regularly then I'd just let him get on with it. Keep offering and he will eat when he wants to and make sure he's still drinking milk.

DD didnt eat for a week, just milk. She was teething, and started eating as suddenly as she stopped eating. A tooth appeared the day after.

She had nasty yellow poos as well.

I kept offering at mealtimes (BLW), but wasnt worried as she still had milk.
