10.5 month old less and less interested in formula. Validate me?! 🫣
My very healthy 75%ile height/weight 10.5 mo girl is less and less interested in bottles. She was EBF her first 6 or 7 months and circumstances made us go to formula after that. She’s never been super attached to the bottle. Never needed it to fall asleep. Loves her straw cups and open cup and 360 cup and will drink water or formula out of any of them. LOVES food and is a great eater, three large meals a day with maybe a snack, too. The past few days she’s just had 6 ounces of formula with each meal and maybe another few ounces in a straw cup or bottle once more if needed. At our 9mo appt we mentioned she was only drinking like 16-20 ounces of formula a day even then, but a great eater, and our ped was totally unconcerned. We figure if she doesn’t miss the bottle, may as well wean her off it mostly and go to straw cups most of the time now. A couple of my friends with similar age babies have given me odd looks about it, like they think I’m rushing her or something. Is it really that bizarre a choice?
