Hi
My daughter’s name is Aarya. I used to work before delivery, now I am thinking to go back to work when Aarya will be 6 months.
I have a question for you, it would be great if you all wonderful mom can help me out.
Aarya is breastfeed baby. I have started her on solid from last few weeks. Now, I want to supplement aarya with formula but my biggest problem is she is not accepting a bottle. Her pediatrician suggested me to try directly with sippy cup. But no luck with that either. So, my question is what you do if your baby doesn’t take a bottle. How do you feed them water, juice or formula? How early do they accept the sippy cup?

Thanks

Hi everyone.

:welcome:welcomeDeepu & Meeta. Tell us more about Adarsh & Aarya


How r u (all) doing?

Niru, u must be njoying. No cooking, getting up late, etcc njoy have fun. They will also have gr8 fun with ur kutty.

Sandhya, don't worry this is normal. Even for Aditi we tried lot of ways to correct it but couldn't. But now its getting normal. So don't worry he will be ok in no time. Try to make him turn both sides, that will help.

Aditi is keeping very busy. She is walking by holding onto something. Till now she no teeth. But her gums r very hard now. She is not at all sleeping well. I am not sure if this related to teething.

Anyways, I got to go now. So :kissto all the cutty piessss.

Deepu & Meeta I went thru' the same. But I continued to BF(directly) since she won't take the bottle. Aditi knew if its milk she will reject but if I bring water in it she will see & will drink. Now she is drinking water in sippy cup(not milk).

Some elders may suggest rubbing honey in the nipple will help BUT NEVER NEVER EVER do that. Honey shouldn't be given to the infants under 1 yr.
Sure other mom(s) will have some gr8 tips.

Bye for now.

Hi Dhivya

Thanks.. How did u try to make Aditi sleep facing another side bcos watever i try my son turns to the flat side somehow. I am scared whether this flatness will remain forever. I am helpless, he is smart enough to manage to turn to flat side. Many give many advise but nothing helps. How abt Aditi? When did the head became normal?

Pls share ur experiences.
