He took his last bottle - when its lots quieter in the room- just fine. </p> <p>@LizSmith: thanks for the tip! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/randomly-refusing-bottles#post-916644 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 16:21:35 +0000 Torchwood 916644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Agree with the getting distracted. I started having to keep a small toy in reserve for feeding one baby I nursed, and let her have it while having her bottle. She focused on the toy and didn't really realize she was being "forced" to sit still and drink. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/randomly-refusing-bottles#post-916621 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 16:12:06 +0000 Kemma 916621@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lots of babies get distracted feeding at this age because the world gets so interesting and they work out they have options!</p> <p>Is he still ok nursing? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/randomly-refusing-bottles#post-916555 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 15:51:32 +0000 dagret 916555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>anyone?

They jut called me and told me he's only drank 2 oz out of each of his bottles today - he's not acting fussy or "off" or anything, he just clamps down on the nipples and won't really eat. </p> <p>I'm wondering if this is a bottle strike, or if this particular batch of milk just tastes funny, or what. I haven't changed dish washing liquid lately either - I thought it might be that for a second. </p> <p>I know he won't starve but I'm really hoping he won't just quit drinking frozen milk anymore...</p> <p>Anyone go through this with your LO? Any tips/advice/thoughts? TIA! </p>
