Hi,
Hoping someone can help with this. We are in the middle of intros with our lo who is just fantastic!
Lo is 16 mths old and has some delays due to Down's Syndrome. Lo is compketely unmotivated by food but is used to bring exclusively fed( predominantly bottles as doesnt take much solid) by 1 FC. Refuses to drink for anyone else.
I am worried more about dehydration in the short tern and do think the eating will come. Probably too full of formula to want to eat atm.........
Dies anyone have any advice how I can win lo round to drink for me.
Have done all the usual things and lo is affectionate, accepting comfort from me etc but just won't drink.
Plan on trying a cup, spoon or even syringe if absolutely necessary hut would rather lo managed the bottle as that is what is usual for lo. Tbh even FC does have to struggle with lo most of the time to get fluids in
Thanks in advance. Am really anxious about this. Otherwise we are confident that transition is and will continue to go well with the expected upsets along the way
