Decrease appetite

Has anyone else noticed a decrease in their baby’s appetite over time? My baby is now taking less than half the amount of formula he used to, and it’s been almost two weeks. He’s using MAM bottles with a size 2 teat. Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated. 😔

Iv felt that this has happened. Like she’s only taking minimal amounts. I’m guessing it’s something that they will outgrow soon. X

My daughter didn't like size 2 teat, she was on teat number 1 till 2 years.

Yep we're having the same issue at the moment. He's gone from 150ml per feed to 90-120ml at best. No advice but I've read it could be linked to development leaps/regression

@Rhian oh ! How long would it last anyidea? Its almost more than 2 weeks . He is only feeding if he’s sleeping .

I’m in the same boat. He’s usually a huge drinker but he’s touching about 3-5 oz and that’s it. I’m not sure it its teething or bottle aversion but he keeps chewing on the bottle or refusing the feed and he’s a bit off with his dummy too 🤷🏻‍♀️

It's been about 3 weeks for us now. Some days are better than others. Hoping it ends soon as the less he drinks in the day, the more he's awake at night

I fine him a bit more fussy too . Difficult in sleeping specially day naps .

Just want to echo it's happening to us. He used to take 210ml but now he's only having 150ml. Sadly I don't have any help but just want to reassure you that you aren't alone.

Exactly the same here - was 150ml guaranteed per feed but now sometimes only 50/60ml. I’ve upped night feeds / dream feeds as she’s so wriggly and unsettled. That’s at least getting her daily quota up! 🥛
