It's driving me crazy, he was never a great eater but past couple of weeks he's totally gone off his meals.

It's getting me frustrated because he would much rather lie round with his bottle of milk! Please help..

Maggie has done this twice before and im pretty sure its all connected with their teeth. How many teeth has your LO got?? They just want the comfort of milk because their gums are so sore. I dont blame them!

When Omar goes through off food phases & he starts to ask for more milk, I just give it to him with a multi vit. I dont give him a bottle with milk all day, he's allowed a bottle for a max of 20 mins to drink his milk, otherwise, it goes away. Keeping a bottle with milk around all day is not good for their teeth. xx
