So maybe just switch the bottle and solids around in the morning. We will have to try that tomorrow. It's really strange because she never had a problem eating solids before in the morning and then one day just refused. I thought maybe she was getting sick of what we were giving her but even with other foods she would refuse. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/9-month-old-not-eating-during-the-day#post-661822 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 16:23:08 +0000 stargal 661822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i would try to feed him the bottle first and then wait maybe an hour and try solids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/9-month-old-not-eating-during-the-day#post-661771 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 15:50:02 +0000 2PeasinaPod 661771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. tictactoe: I agree with this!</p> <p>LO wanted nothing to do with solids until he had a bottle first. So we feed him in the morning right when he gets up and then do breakfast a little later. That seems to work MUCH better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/9-month-old-not-eating-during-the-day#post-661691 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 15:21:53 +0000 T.H.O.U. 661691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My thought is Food before One is just for Fun. Don't push her right now because she is getting all she needs from the formula. One meal a day is still great. </p> <p>I agree, even my 18 month old still likes her milk when she wakes up and then she is ready to eat solids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/9-month-old-not-eating-during-the-day#post-661627 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 14:46:58 +0000 mrs. tictactoe 661627@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would try giving her a bottle before she eats. She might be too hungry and just wants the ease of the bottle to fill her tummy. Getting used to solids takes time. Once she learns that eating solids will also fill her up, she will more readily eat before having a bottle. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/9-month-old-not-eating-during-the-day#post-661618 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 14:42:48 +0000 Lindsay05 661618@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok bees. I'm frustrated. LO will no longer eat breakfast or lunch. We try lots of different mixtures from oatmeal and fruit to vegetables and avocado. The only thing we haven't tried is yogurt and/or cottage cheese. She will literally only eat like 3 spoonfuls and that's it. Our current routine is</p> <p>Wake up 7:30<br /> breakfast 8:00<br /> bottle 6 oz formula 10:30<br /> nap<br /> lunch 12:30 or 1:00<br /> bottle 6 oz formula 3:30<br /> nap supper 6:00 or 6:30<br /> bottle 9 oz formula 9:00<br /> bedtime</p> <p>She eats supper no problems at all but breakfast and lunch is just screaming in her chair. She won't even eat cheerios or snacks. OH and she has snacks inbetween mealtimes and bottles. Should I cut back on her bottles? Is she eating too much? I feel like especially with breakfast that she should be super hungry after not eating for 10-11 hours. </p> <p>Oh babies. sigh. </p>
