anyone else baby on solids not intrested in bottles anymore?

DD has been on solids for at least a month or 2 by now. All of a sudden this week or so its been a stuggle getting her to take her bottle.
She was drinking 4 7.5 oz bottles during the day and one bottle before bed that would be anywhere from 2-6 oz.
I expected for her not to drink a much and i asked the dr what min. she should be having and he told me 18-24 oz in a day he aslo said she obviously isnt missing any meals Chat Icon

Well now its a fight to get her to even drink 18oz in a day she will start drinking a bottler and maybe take 3 oz and then stop and then its a struggle for her to take anymore.
Forget it her last night bottle is a battle for her to even drink that i think i will just be dropping it at this point.

Is she having too much solids? could it be teething? I am trying not to worry about it but of course I am Chat Icon

EAT: do you think up the nipple size would help?

We had a similar problem. The ped recommended three solid meals for DD (mine is a month older than yours) but she dropped too many nursing sessions. It was messing with her sleep patterns too. We dropped her "lunch" and replaced it with BFing and things have been much better. I'll try again when she's older.

yep DS does this from time to time due to teething, but overall loves food, and hates milk, my ped is actually very happy with this and said hell take as much as he needs.

thanks! I am hoping and thinking its just teething. either that of DH thinks it maybe the size of the nipple.
I will give it a few more days.

If she continues to fight me maybe i will just drop one of her meals!

You could also shrink the size of her meals.
