Baby not interested in milk anymore

Hi, I have a 10 month old baby who has a milk allergy so she is on SMA Alfamino. She has been on this milk since about 4 months old and she got on with it really well. she currently has 3 bottles 1 morning 1 afternoon and a bedtime bottle, however the last few days she has had zero interest in the milk (she has always preferred food since we started BLW ) I am just really confused on what to do, I can’t actually get the bottle down her as she won’t let anyone feed her and just pushes it away)! Help appreciated

Add some vitamins into whatever water/juice she is drinking. My baby has gone off her milk too and HV said vitamin supplement will do the job as long as they’re also eating a good amount of food x

@Emmy what vitamins are you using ? She definitely eats lots of food x

Is she teething by any chance? They can go off bottles when teething. Ive started doing food first then milk before nap or sleep and its got a bit better again

Thankyou both I will use vitamins for peace of mind and try swap breakfast and her first bottle around ! X

My girl is the same She's on neocate and never been a big milk drinker never had more than 5oz bottles I'm seeing how we go with skipping the afternoon bottle today and go from there

@CeeCee she definitely could be , she hasn’t actually gone any teeth yet so won’t let me look x

@Emma-louise she was on nutramigen at first but made her belly so bad ! Switched to sma alfamino and it’s definitely made a difference but she’s always been bity with feeding , but since food she’s awful with bottles more of a foody😂!

If you try her with some nurofen about an hour before a bottle and see how she gets on, if it helps then shes probably in teething pain! Nurofen and anbesol are my lifesavers x

Mine is having 120ml at 7 am and then 120ml at 9 pm. That's all she is under a dietician, and she has seen ok because she is having around 300g of yoghurt a day. The dietician asked to give her some vitamins D

It is very normal for babies on allergy milk to drink less and not soothe their tummies but I've always found she's not massive on milk but remember the milks don't taste nice at all so maybe food just tastes so much better
