DD refusing milk
For the last couple of weeks DD (15 months) has been refusing her milk. She used to LOVE her milk and now will barely drink a few ounces.
Has this happened to anyone? Do you think its because of her molars? I hope this is just a phase.
TIA

DD refusing milk
Is she taking any of her milk bottles? Does she have dairy daily (cheese, yogurt etc)?
Up until around 13 months dd took 3 bottles (when she woke, before her nap and before bed). She stopped wanting her morning bottle and I was concerned bc she was only getting 16oz of milk. At her ped appt they said it was fine for her to have only 2 bottles a day as long as she has dairy in her diet.

Re: DD refusing milk
DS is 16 months and only has 2 bottles a day, but some days he only takes a few ounces and doesn't seem interested. When he was getting his molars, he hardly drank at all, I think the sucking hurt.

Re: DD refusing milk
DD never drank milk, even when we tried to mix it gradually with her formula. Docs say as long as she gets 3-4 servings of other forms of dairy a day, she's fine.
We do yogurt for breakfast, string cheese snack, dairy somewhere in lunch (grilled cheese, mac n cheese, stir in butter into pasta, etc), and yogurt before bed.

DD refusing milk
My two year old just started refusing milk now that we tried to switch her from soy to almond and coconut milk. I still offer here and there but just make sure she's getting calcium from other sources. Ped says it's fine as long as they get their calcium. At 15 months, I'd probably keep offering daily to see if she'll start back up again.
