my baby is 7 months old and I had to start him on formula. im slowly weaning so I have a little milk of my own but my baby just wont eat anything!
I have to be in a secluded place with a blanket over his head so he cant see anything and even with that I have to jab the bottle into his mouth and he cries hystrically. literally it take half an hour for me to get him to start eating and when I do he'll eat abt 2 ounces and then turn his head.
hes really losing weight and only has about 15 ounces a day (at most!)
this si really stressing me out-any good advice?
I switched brands of formula quite a few times and try to give him breastmilk too, just not interested in anything!

can you try him on food like cereal and jars? Also maybe put a little of your milk on the nipple of the bottle, so the baby will take it better.

Maybe try a straw cup? Perhaps he doesn't like bottles.

maybe he doesnt like the bottle? buy a few, try out new nipples.....cant hurt...also as the previous poster mentions, try baby food... hes not so young...maybe hell pick up on the weight loss.
