How Much Is Too Little?

[aries5486]

Jenna is nearly 6 months over the past few weeks she hasnt been too well and she wasnt taking much milk ... Now shes better and shes still not taking what she used too over a day we can only really get 17oz-19oz into her where as she used to take 22oz-26oz a day?? Does this mean shes ready for weaning? As when shes refusing a bottle she seems hungry gets all excited sucks it then just looks at me and crys? Shes on aptimil and has been since 8 weeks old (HV advised me to go from sma to aptimil)

Im just really puzzled and worried shes not taking enough she seems happy enough in her jumperoo at the moment playing still very smiley etc and still wet and dirty nappys!!

Im sooo confused right now!!!

Maybe shes feeling better but still not got a full apetite back again?
Last time i was ill, i felt better and hungry but i jsut couldnt eat right for another couple days.

When Alex was ill, he went off the bottles and even though he seemed to be better, it took another week until he was back to his normal feeding habits.

Just keep an eye on the number of wet nappies, as you have been doing

I kept offering Alex his water bottle during the day and now he actually loves taking a sip every now & then whereas before he just refused the water.

Try not to worry & if she isn't back to normal in couple of days, maybe give you HV or dr a call.
