Question

What should I do if a five-and-a-half-month-old baby refuses to drink formula?

Answer

It is recommended to first express breast milk into a bottle for the baby to suck on, to help them get used to the bottle and formula. Additionally, avoid giving the baby any other food or drinks before feeding, until they feel hungry. It’s best to feed them when they are calm or want to sleep, as this makes it easier for them to accept. Try different brands of formula and nipples to find the flavor and texture that the baby likes.
