7 month old refusing feeds from anyone but me

[Theawkwardblonde]

Hi,
I'm a first time mum so please be gentle 😂 I'm due to return to work from maternity in a couple of weeks. DD will be going between both sets of grandparents for childcare. She is used to them, although is more comfortable with my parents.
This last week she has started refusing to be fed food and formula from anyone but me. It literally shifted overnight. Normally she feeds okay with my mum but will point blank refuse to let anyone near her. She arches her back, screams and chokes on the milk. It's the same with food.
Today, she refused to be given her bottle by her dad too, which is really out of character. Parents are lecturing me saying I've raised a clingy baby...

I'm concerned about her feeding when I return to work How do I get her to accept feeds from others, when she previously didn't have an issue? Should have added she's 7 months and had 2 teeth cut through in the last fortnight too. She still has 5 bottles a day, anywhere from 5-7oz is standard for her, and 2 meals.
Any advice appreciated! Stressed to the max!

Are you there when she’s refusing the feeds from anybody else or is she refusing even when you’re not around? If you’re always there I would try leaving the room/ house a while before you know she’ll want a feed and let her settle with the other person and into the idea you’re not an option and see if she’ll take it from them then.

What happen if you aren't at home she's her dad and needs a bottle/feeding?

If you don't know then you need to leave her with her dad for the afternoon so 4 hours and go somewhere e.g. cinema where you can't be contacted.

(Dad will need to try a cup or spoon if she refuses a bottle.)

@MolkosTeenageAngst thanks for your response ☺️ I've tried leaving the room, it makes no difference at the minute.
This actually started last weekend when my mum was babysitting. She refused her nighttime feed then cried for 2 hours as she was obviously hungry. We cut our date night short and came home as she was in an absolute state. Took a feed straight from us. Usually fine as she's been babysat a few time.

@RedWingBoots I'm usually at home when her dad is off. He takes her out and usually has no issues feeding her, it's just started today with her refusing from him. In fact if her dad is home he does all her feeding to give me a break so it's bizarre that she now doesn't want to feed from him, alongside grandparents.

He's taken her out today with grandparents to see how she is. Good suggestion on the cup; she has been drinking water from a training cup so may try that, thanks ☺️
