My son as well. He drinks 1 - 1.5 oz and start to push the bottle away, we always have to push him to finish the rest by drinking from cup, total intake 3-4oz per meal and he is 6 months already! I started to give him cereal when he was 5 months, he like it in the beginning and now also refuse. The only thing that I think he still likes is the canned baby food, I think i have no choice but give him what he likes.
My Baby don't like to drink milk after she was 5 months old. She would drink 1 to 2 oz of milk by bottle and then she stopped. However, my friend told me I can try teach her to drink milk by spoon.
Now she can drink the milk very good.
She take 20 to 25 min to finish 9 oz milk.
You can try it.
Bob402402:
do u hold the spoon for her or does she hold it herself? ...20-25 mins to finish 9oz milk not bad wor! i sometimes need to abt half an hour to feed him 5oz ar...
My son is a member of the 'milk hating team'! ever since he was about 6 months he started to hate his milk. now he's 8 months and daily he can only drink around 16 oz. he doesn't use bottles but straws and cups!! I think he's not patient enough to drink slowly. also one method may help is to feed him milk with food! like adults drinking something while eating. i know it's not too healthy but it's the only way I can get him to drink.
