My Six Month Old Baby Girl Wont Eat Or Drink Formula

by Lawrence
(Jamaica)

I have a six months old Daughter who cries whenever I attempt to feed her. We tried the spoon and that has not worked. She only willingly accepts water, anything else is refused. I don't know what else to do.

Please HELP!!!!!!

Hi Lawrence!

Being 6 months old, your daughter is just being completely normal. :-) Stop trying for a few weeks and then start again. Some babies just don't want to have much to do with solid foods for a long time, but it passes.

Here you'll find some tips on how to help your picky little eater.

And here you'll find get tips on how to get your girl to accept bottle feeding, if that is also a problem.

Good luck and take it easy!

6 months old won't drink formula or eat baby cereal please help
by: Anonymous

I have a 6 months old daughter who won't except any formula or baby cereal at all. I don't know if this is normal or not. I'm a first time mom and not very sure of babies eating habits. Every time I tried feeding her she would just cry and spits all the milk or baby cereal out of her mouth. i tired sneaking it in while she's asleep, but it doesn't seem to work. She can go on all day without eating or drinking anything. I'm worried. I don't know what else to do, but just feel very frustrated. Please help me.
