Solids & Milk

Hi, my 5m+ baby has started solids since 4m as recommended by dr as she was more interested in food. Now she is rejecting the milk bottle & only drinks about 100ml a day while she eats rice cereal with milk & other solids. Is it healthy & normal? Also she poops 3-5times a day #advicepls

I wouldn’t replace milk with solids for babies below 12m. I would cut off or reduce her solids to get her to drink milk first. 100ml a day is too little. Milk should be their main food below the age of 1.

Agree with changing the bottle. Or you can try cup /straw feeding. It’s better than only drinking 100ml per day.
