7.5 month old refused to take nap all day and refused her bottle. She normally drinks every 3-4 hours. But she refused and didn't drink for over 5 hours and when she did she only drank 3oz! Is this normal? Anyone LO have days like this? I was / am so worried when this happens.

Normally she drinks 4-5oz but as it was over 5 hours I thought she would defo finish 5oz. No luck. She didn't eat solids today either

And she just went to sleep?! At 21:30. That was a very very long evening..

Teething? Growth spurt? About to start doing something new (rolling/crawling/walking)? Possessed by a demon?

That's generally the list i go through in my head when DD has days like that...

@SomeoneElseEntirelyNowOh my! She woke up at 4 am. And never went back to sleep. She refused her morning bottle and I had no choice but to give her breakfast fast. Porridge. Nornally I would dream feed her but I couldn't because she wasn't sleeping.

I don't know what's going on. One tooth has come through and that was over two weeks ago. I'm so so so so sleepy!

My LB did this at 8 months. He was teething and had a growth spurt I reckon! He is still off his milk he maybe has about 10oz a day he's 11 months now. When she is eating again OP try and add the milk in food so she is loosing as much. I struggle to get the 10oz down him so much. He won't fall asleep on a bottle anymore. I have to try and feed him whilst asleep 🤦🏻‍♀️

@SpillTheTeaa thank you for your reply. Thank you for sharing that. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one. It's so worrying. I will add milk. She isn't a great eater. Maybe one tablespoon of breakfast lunch and fruit. Mine won't fall asleep when taking bottle too. I have to feed her while she is asleep. This has been going on for months but yesterday I refused to feed her like that and managed to get her drink someone with long waiting times!

Thank you again for your reply and advice!
