| i had a problem with my daughter for couple months when i first started to feeding her water. i had totally breastfed before, and although i was told many times she didn't really need water, i was quite panicky to the fact that she wud refuse but ate LOTS of solids. so i just kept offering it to her, i would b/feed first before the solids, and then during solid feeding, after 2-3 spoonfuls, i'd offer some water and she'd have a sip or 2, then turn her head, then feed another 2-3 spoonfuls and offer again. this continued for 1-2 months and finally she would drink water.
she loves water now, and finds juice weird as i hav never realy offered her any for fear of sweet tooth
hope this helps! |
