What do I do if Clover doesn't want bottles anymore since starting solids?

She is down to about 12oz a day. She will just spit out the formula or slap the bottle away. She looks at anyone eating like a ravenous beast who's ready to attack. What can I do? Maybe try putting her formula in sippy cups?

I would try a sippy cup. Are you giving her the bottle right after she has solids?

I give her one when she gets up around 6am, she wants nothing to do with it or will drink maybe 2 or 3 oz from 6oz. Then she has cereal and fruit at about 8:30, will eat all of it and then take maybe 2oz from another 6oz like an hour later. She has been getting cereal at lunchtime at daycare which I am going to ask them not to give her. I'd prefer to give it just in the morning and at night. Maybe that's it?

I'll try the sippy thing.

Could she be teething? I know DD doesn't want anything to do with her bottle when she's teething.

She was drinking very little formula (about as much as you say Clover is drinking) for a couple of months. I called the Dr, and they said not to worry about it- just as long as she was having wet diapers, which she was.

Its picked up now- but she still doesnt have any teeth!

YES, she could be. She doesn't want soft things like her bottle or sippy, she likes the hard plastic like Roman's cup. Who, knowsChat Icon

I think DS is the same age (7mos) and he was like this about a month ago. I think it was his teeth although he still hasnt gotten another Chat Icon He's finally doing 28-32oz/day again.
