Hi Mandeep
My daughter is low birth weight .My daughter is 5 month old today. I give her to cereal and juice but she doesn’t like this. And she takes milk only 21oz par day. And she takes milk when she sleeps not her wake up. Please help me what I do.
mandeep replied. so your LO in naughty n not eating hun. may be she is not hungry baby n 21oz is enough for her, if she is happy n being low birth weight but still putting weight every week i dont think there' s anything to worry. may be she is not ready yet or may be she dont like taste of cereal. try to give her hipps (baby food) apple puree u get them in 80g jars n r very very tasty that still my sons fav. if she can eat one teaspoon at start thats a big thing honey or try her with avocado as this fruit is high in caloires, take the ripe avocado n mash it, to make bit liquid add apple juice or FM. give her first only on a tip of spoon n see. try to divert her attention with a toy or make out some voices like quak quak, or miaw miaw concept is to make her smile once she does that then spoon goes in her mouth she will gag, spit that normal but be carefull dont force her.i remmember my son was once only on 16oz a day for 3 days n myself i was in tears but come forth day he need food every 2 hours. can i ask is she teething as babies do go off food.
