Question

My three-month-old baby has stopped eating formula milk. She was primarily breastfed before. Can doctors please give me some advice? The child was breastfed up to five years old, and now refuses to eat formula milk. It might be that the child has started to refuse the bottle or that the taste and temperature of the formula milk are not as good as breast milk.

Answer

Hello, it’s possible that your baby hasn’t yet recovered the habit of drinking from a bottle. Try adjusting the position and the temperature of the formula milk; it might not be as good as breast milk. Give your child time to adjust, and be patient.
