Question
My 4-month-old baby has stopped drinking milk and seems unwell. How can I improve this situation?
Answer
The baby may be experiencing physiological aversion to milk, resulting in poor appetite. If this condition persists for more than 2 months and there are concerns about the baby’s weight and height development, consider giving the baby specialized vitamin supplements and consult with a doctor about the possibility of using an appetizer to adjust gastrointestinal function. Additionally, the baby may be starting to develop taste preferences and may lose interest in single-flavored formula milk, longing to try new flavors. It is advised not to force the baby to drink milk to avoid resistance, and to offer a variety of complementary foods with natural flavors, avoiding additional seasonings (before the age of one).
