13 MO refusing milk and liquids

Hi all,

I'm really pulling my hair out with this one.

My DS is 13 MO and recently he refuses to drink milk from his bottle and also he refuses to drink any fluids from bottles, sippy cups, cups, straw bottles. It's really upsetting me as he isn't hydrated. I have even been feeding him water using a spoon, until he picked up what i was doing! He is very picky and is spoon fed. I wasn't successful with BLW.

I have even tried juice drinks of many flavours.

I feel really low about this. I would be grateful for any helpful tips and advice!

Many thanks

Are you getting enough wet nappies OP? If you’re not in a hot country and he’s showing no signs of dehydration, I’d stop spoon feeding him water. Just give him some high water foods like a homemade ice lolly, brocolli, cauliflower or soup.

When you say BLW want successful, what happened? Isn’t he having any finger foods at all?
