Question
The baby is four months old, and her milk intake has not increased, showing poor appetite. Parents are worried about the baby’s insufficient nutrition intake.
Answer
At four months old, the baby may enter a so-called “fussy feeding period,” and parents should not be overly concerned. First, identify the reasons why the baby does not want to drink milk and take appropriate measures. If the baby is teething, consider using a larger hole nipple to reduce discomfort during sucking. Alternatively, you can mix the formula milk with oatmeal, rice porridge, and other foods to create a milk porridge and feed it with a spoon.
