Teething and refusing bottles

1 reply

Hi my 6mo has been teething badly for over a week and progressively is taking less and less of her bottle each day. She had started solids and is now refusing them also. She previously had a feeding aversion and I don’t think I can cope with it going back to that. Because of the previous feeding aversion she won’t take any pain relief, ambesol, bonjela, teething powders or granules. She just refuses to open her mouth and if I get any in she vomits. Any advice greatly appreciated as it’s really getting me down.

My twins both go off their food and bottles when teething, it doesn't last don't worry.
Try different types of teethers to chew on until you find the type they like.
Also, if you haven't already try the anbesol liquid (not the gel), it's the consistency of water so may be easier to get it on her gums
