Caden still has 2 cups of milk a day as well Deb.

but yeah thats basicly what I mean as well, just offer her lots of snacks, and dont worry as she will eat if shes hungry, even if she picks at it. ]]> Wed, 15 Sep 2010 15:14:09 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35734&PID=1153394&title=spitting-food-out#1153394 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35734&PID=1153354&title=spitting-food-out#1153354 Author: Bizzy

should - makes me laugh... my 2.5 yr old sometimes has 2 breastfeeds a day.
i would just offer her snacks during the day and try not to worry about it - This too shall pass!]]> Wed, 15 Sep 2010 14:30:19 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35734&PID=1153354&title=spitting-food-out#1153354 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35734&PID=1153266&title=spitting-food-out#1153266 Author: Shezamumof3

Maybe she is filling up on too much milk, because at 13 months she only really needs two breastfeeds or two bottles.

Id probably start the tough love on her Fiona, only 2 breastfeeds or 2 bottles(not sure if you were still going to wean her), and then just give her food on her tray and if she doesnt eat it tough, and try again next meal, she wont starve herself, I think shes just being a monkey because as you said, she was a really good eater to start with.

I agree with Deb though, she is still young. Bella has milk in her sippy cup AM and then water rest of the day and then milk in her cup at night. She has a snack, then lunch and then a snack, and if she doesnt eat it, tough.
Alot of her food gets thrown on the floor lol.
I also give her what I know she loves at every meal, like banana, raisons, along with the sammies or what ever shes having for dinner, that way I know shes eating something.
She refuses to be spoon fed, she spits it out, so I just dont go there, she feeds herself.

Oh, wrong way around. She has breakfast first (solids) then a breastfeed, then sometimes some formula before her sleep at 10. Then around midday she has solids again and may have a little milk before her pm nap at 1.30ish. Then dinner at 5.30, breastfeed around 6.15 followed by bottle.]]> Tue, 14 Sep 2010 10:03:22 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35734&PID=1151997&title=spitting-food-out#1151997 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35734&PID=1151995&title=spitting-food-out#1151995 Author: FionaS

Depends on when she asks. Sometimes milk is 10mins after, sometimes more like 2 hours]]> Tue, 14 Sep 2010 10:02:09 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35734&PID=1151995&title=spitting-food-out#1151995 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35734&PID=1151873&title=spitting-food-out#1151873 Author: Bizzy

how long you waiting between milk and solids? 13 months is still young though... it doesnt seem it when you see how far they have come though.]]> Tue, 14 Sep 2010 08:00:46 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35734&PID=1151873&title=spitting-food-out#1151873 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35734&PID=1151832&title=spitting-food-out#1151832 Author: FionaS

She is 13 months now. She loves the cup for water but if I put milk in it she just spits it out again.

If I give a little milk first she won't eat any solids at all.

She's been gradually getter harder at night too. Like now it is 2am and she's been crying for an hour. I've tried breast, bottle, co-sleeping, cuddles, new nappy, pamol but nothing works. She just yells. We thought it was a hunger thing but we seem to be having more and more nights when nothing will do. She'll have a small drink, settle for maybe 10 mins then get all worked up again so hve another small drink etc. The time awake each night is getting longer. She is happy as larry during the day. Had ears, throat etc checked again yesterday but they are all fine.]]> Tue, 14 Sep 2010 02:14:08 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35734&PID=1151832&title=spitting-food-out#1151832 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35734&PID=1151777&title=spitting-food-out#1151777 Author: Bizzy

Looks like I have a second picky eater in the house...ironic coming from parents who love food! Ashley started out great. I did BLW + some traditional spoon feeding and she was into everything, except potato. However, many, many colds later (she's had around 13) and we have a picky eater. She will play with anything but doesn't actually eat much of it. If I spoon feed her she spits everything out.

Since one particularly nasty flu virus, she's been having a bottle every night, sometimes having up to 300mLs of milk a night. We've tried to pull back on this but we just end up with a lot of screaming and not much sleeping.

I'm not sure how to move forward since she spits everything out?

She is having 2 breastfeeds a day plus 2 or 3 bottles. I wanted to move her to a cup by now but if she drinks from a cup she spits it out and thinks it is very funny.

To be honest I don't think she associates food with filling her tummy. I tested it recently. When she was really hungry I offered her solids and she only ate 3 tsp. I then got her out of her chair and offered her formula and she drained an entire bottle.]]> Mon, 13 Sep 2010 21:28:22 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=35734&PID=1151751&title=spitting-food-out#1151751
