Baby just grazes on food?

9mo always had a smaller appetite compared to my eldest who has and still is fantastic!

She doesn’t even have big bottles though. The max she’s taken is 7oz but usually takes 4/5oz

She doesn’t really eat a full meal (even the baby portions I give) its very rare she does

right now she has a cold and is teething and it’s like she’s eating nothing honestly I try everything and try stuff off my plate too if it’s different

is it normal for her to just pick at things? She doesn’t have a massive appetite but shs healthy. Growing fantastic hitting milestones ahead of schedule a good colour and ddoint amazing

If she's growing well and is a healthy weight it can't be that she's not taking on enough - is it possible you're feeding her too often so she hasn't had a chance to get hungry yet?

It’s normal. Just feed her what she’ll have. Mine seemed to eat nothing until 10 months and then was eating like adult portions. If she’s otherwise healthy and well, sounds like you are doing great.

Totally normal. Like another poster said you might just be giving her a bit too much. How many bottles is she having?
