9 month old loves milk more than food.

Is this normal?

My DD2 does like her food. At breakfast time she has Weetabix but only a few spoonfulls but will drink all of her 8oz milk after.

She is ok with her lunch (sometimes a jar, sometimes something homemade) again, only has a few spoonfulls but will drink her milk at naptime.

Dinner she does well.

She has finger foods like organix crisp type things, loves yogurt and has her fruit in a mushed up way.

She just doesn't seem to eat much. We have tried different times throughout the day but still makes no change. She's teething if that makes a difference? She used to do really well before her teethies started breaking through.

Anyone else been through this?

Everyone with a baby has been through this! :) 'Food is fun until one' is the guideline here; your little one should be having mostly milk and then a little bit of what she fancies. Google Baby Led Weaning and see if it interests you.

DS is 18 months old and eats anything but I reckon he still prefers boob!
