Baby doesn't like the taste of milk

When the child does not drink the mixture: what to do?Photo: GettyIf the baby has been drastically transferred from breastfeeding to artificial feeding, or (if he has long been an artificialist), the mother abruptly switched to the milk of another manufacturer, the child may simply seem unfamiliar with the taste of food. Even newborn babies are gourmets who prefer to eat only what is tasty to them! The way out of the situation: if possible, make the transition from breast milk to the mixture smooth, hold the crumbs a bit on mixed feeding. If, however, in the transition to a new brand, return to the diet of the baby familiar food.

The child stopped drinking the mixture: he just does not know how to eat from a bottle

This is a problem faced by mothers whose babiesnever knew any other "dishes" except the breast. In such a situation, advice will help. 1. Try to accustom to the bottle gradually. 2. At first, you can use a spoon or a medical syringe (this is how they feed in some maternity hospitals). 3. If the baby has already grown, then the "bottle" stage can be skipped altogether, offering the baby a spill-proof mug or a regular cup.

Uncomfortable temperature of the mixture

It is imperative to check before feeding.the temperature of the formula: maybe the baby refuses to drink the formula because it is too hot or cold? The optimal temperature of milk is 36–37 degrees.

The kid is sick

Children often lose their appetite when they are sick.If your baby has colic, a fever, or is teething, don't insist, don't try to force feed him. When the baby feels better, he will definitely be full. But it's better to give water to a sick baby, at least from a spoon and little by little.

Baby fed

Are you surprised why your baby won't take the formula?although before that he ate both puree and porridge with appetite? Leave him alone - he is full! We, adults, are accustomed to a three-course dinner, but a child can be satisfied with just one. It is also quite possible that the interval between meals is too short and the child simply has not had time to get hungry. If the child is over a year old and stubbornly does not want to eat the mixture, do not persist, the baby's diet is already quite wide, so the picky eater will definitely not go hungry. And milk can be added to porridge, puddings or you can offer the child fermented milk products, and the lack of milk will be compensated. Advice for mothers:
