Please do not worry. Its just a phase and it will eventually pass. It could be that your daughter might be teething and is experiencing a loss of appetite. Maybe you could try a different brand of formula. Have you tried giving her homemade mashed fruits (apples/peaches/nectarines) or maybe some boiled daal/sooji/khichdi?

To boost breast milk you could increase the intake of methi . Also increasing the frequency of nursing may gradually increase the supply.

Good Luck.

thank you for your advice. now my daughter is doing better. yah i tried similac and now good start formula. i am giving her this with cereal added with some fruit so that she does't recognize the smell of formula. i am determined she will never take a bottle.

regarding the fenugreek (Methi) capsules i took them two at a time twice a day. it worked but came to know that i should continue it for a couple of weeks. do you know wether it had any side effects like will the intake harm my baby. will i become habitual. i am presently giving gerber fruit and vegetables two tablespoons a day. casper how much milk does a 7 month old require(turns 8 months in a week).need i give her some water everyday. can i start giving her breakfast.lunch and dinner. presently i am giving her cereal two times and remaining all milk because i am afraid my milk will stop if i don't nurse. she stopped taking milk during night a month back which might be another cause of low milk. please write to me what ever you know.its valualbe to me.again thanks a lot.

It is a fantasy that drives me wild like nothing else, just the thought of laying my head in a woman's lap while she brings her swollen nipples to my mouth. Ideally, I'd like to finally explore this with the right female. If you are in or near... - Sanjayhyd [View Message]
