Poor Appetite

i guess i was also following the tin as it says 240 ml X 4 for a baby 6 month and above! I do the blw only when i am around so its normally in the evening! Like jude angel also likes sweet things! Thanks memo gonna steal your feeding schedule *wink*

Mmmm... Well as I understand you are suppose to alternate milk food milk etc.
Some days Jude plays with his food a little and then I take it away.
If I can this is what he had today. (i am blw)
Breakie : banana
lunch: an apricot
Dinner: sweet potato
He likes sweet and creamy things so I often include cottage cheese and yogurt and he also likes avo and brocoli, if I cook it in a bolognaise sauce. Also likes butternut if it has (creamed) cottage cheese on.
I wish someone else would tell you on the formula front. I'm not sure if you can overfeed but I know alot of moms have said they also demand feed in this respect. Becauuse the tin only gives a guide all babies arent the same.

thanks 4 the advice ladies! Memo i just assumed since she's on formula she should be eating a bit more as her tummy capacity has grown! i hear u on the milk feeding part and totally agree but what happens when u have a hungrier baby? Do u just keep giving them bottles of formula? Just a question

Guys I read so many blogs on people still nursing their kids at ages 3 and 4. I wonder if we should be so worried about foodses when they are still infants?
What's the rush if they are infact drinking their milk (just asking)
On another note AM, do you think that maybe cos you've switched to formula during the day, perhaps you're little Angel is just a little fuller than usual?

I won't stress to much about it. As said, make sure that she does not have some flue or infection on hands and if she does not have any, relax. My little one is 14 months and is a very small eater. He eats porridge in the morning, if the teethies are not eating him up to much, i must add. Then his afternoon snack, then at 15:00 another small snack, and then his evening meal. It may sound wow, but if you see the porsians, you will understand. It is barely a small tea plate full. My little one loves his milk, so I leave it at that, knowing that I am going to chop off when it comes to taking him off the bottle. But that is another days worries. As said, let them guide you.

As long as she is picking up weight and thriving I wouldn't worry too much. To me it sounds like she is getting enough (unless this is a sudden change). She will let you know when she is hungry, try and let her guide you - children are just like us - some of us are small eaters and others can finish 2 plates!

my LG used to feed just like that too when she was much younger and i always thought i was underfeeding her. But she was just fine. As long as you feel she is getting enough food and liquids sshe should be right on track!
Up until now my LG still drinks only 120mls and she is 14months. You cant force them to eat more. and now she can actually say No when she is full
