For those who remember my posting a few months ago about
the baby who wouldn't latch that I got to latch by myself one day,
he has a new problem.
He is now 6 months, 3 weeks and doesn't want solids. Mom has
tried cereal mixed with BM and squash and banana. She has tried
a cup, spoon ,and her finger. Baby now closes his mouth if he
sees the spoon.
I suggested plain breast milk off a spoon a few times then a
dilute solution of cereal in breast milk and gradually increase
from there.
I picked cereal b/c I know it dissolves well in breast milk.
Any other ideas?
thanks,
Rob
