Bottle feeding
baby refuses the bottle and drinking
lia
Hi everyone,
My 9-month-old son is healthy, cheerful, and eats without any issues. However, for the past few weeks, he has been refusing the bottle and drinking. I mix his baby food, fruit puree, and hot meals with extra water. So, he's not getting much water. I've tried new brands (Hema and Avant), but no success. Does anyone have experience with this?
I'd appreciate some advice; I'm completely frustrated. Thanks in advance.

Maybe you can try offering him drinking from a spout cup or a regular cup? It might make it more interesting and then he can do more 'by himself'. He still needs to get his 600 ml of fluids in, does that work out? -

maybe switch to a plant-based milk alternative? -

Maybe it helps if he has something to do while drinking... back in the day (but I was much older then), my mom would go for a walk with me and only then give me my bread... then I ate it without even noticing.
