Question

My baby, who is now over 11 months old, was introduced to formula at around 9 months, with just one to two feedings a day, each serving 90 milliliters. The baby was on mixed feeding, consuming relatively little formula. Recently, the baby has suddenly stopped drinking formula and refuses to take the bottle. I’m not sure what’s going on.

Answer

As long as the child is fine with other foods, there’s no cause for concern. It could be that the child dislikes the nipple of the bottle. You can try switching to a different bottle or changing the nipple. Check if the nipple is too hard. Pay attention to proper feeding and ensure the child consumes complementary foods adequately.
