my baby wont drink any milk?


he is 4 months and has been eating solids for around a month but now he wont take any milk what should i do

Answers:
Your baby needs calcium and Vit D. Make sure he gets plenty of sunshine (for the Vit D) and offer other foods rich in Calcium. Also, try mixing milk in with his solid foods. How about cereal? Give him some oatmeal with milk in it or other soft cereals with milk just like you and I eat for breakfast.

Other Answers:
give him water or soy milk. maybe he wants to be a vegan

It depends which milk you are feeding him. You should be at the moment breast feeding him. Wait about till he/she is 6 months old then feed him bottled milk I think your baby needs his caffeine. Enough of that milk.


give baby fresh milk

You should take this problem to his doctor immediately! A baby's system simply cannot digest solid foods well enough to get all the nutrients he needs from them. Doctors suggest not even introducing solids until they are 6 months old, as babies cannot digest them properly. He needs formula, not cows milk, in his system in order to be healthy. He will become malnurished if you do not seek medical attention now.

Could be lactose intolerant. Try Goat's milk. Extreemly good for infants....

Experience...we had to buy and raise goats for the milk for our son. he needs milk. his stomach is not strong enough to digest solid foods at that age. see his Dr about it and find out what to do to make him start taking his milk again. maybe adding a flavor will make him want it again like a little juice or something. probably he has gotten used to the taste of regular foods and doesn't care for the taste anymore. baby milk is REALLY NASTY ewwww. cut back on the solids and leave him a bit hungry then he will be more likely to take the milk when offered.


He could be allergic to milk. My kids were. They drank a soy substitute. You need to talk to your pediatrician right away.

Trying adding alittle honey in his milk. It will sweeten up the taste.
