I Understand
My daughter is almost nine months and is borderline underweight now. She won't drink out of a bottle or a sippy cup-- only about 3 oz. all day while I'm at work. Then she nurses lots at night to make up for the day without me. The thing is, I'm pregnant again, and I'm very tired. I also have concerns about being able to produce enought milk for her and support my growing baby. My doctor recommended I take my daughter to an occupational therapist, but I have my doubts about this. She's been checked over and over again to be sure that there is nothing physical causing her to reject the bottle, and the doctors can't find anything. They've basically told me that the cause is my daughter's own stubborn ways (wonder where she got that from!). I would just tell you to hang in there... that's all we can do in this situation. Maybe try an open-faced cup more often. At least your son is at a healthy weight. Anyone have advice for me in my situation?
