Just curious what others consume.. my LO is not super interested in solids. Hates texture and chunks so on the puree train still. I’m wondering if it’s because he’s so full on milk. He was consuming 30oz a day, but lately only 25-26 but he also isn’t eating a ton (maybe a few spoonfuls here and there when offered) so I feel like he should still be consuming closer to what he was?

I know intake goes down eventually, but due to eating more, so maybe he’s teething and doesn’t have much of an appetite.

Just concerned he’s not drinking enough, but also concerned he isn’t eating solids from too much milk 😅

Do babies just naturally start getting hungrier and interested in food with the amount of milk they normally consume? Or does milk intake have to drop in order for that to happen?

Baby is almost 8 months old.. I’ve been EP since 4 months. I pump 5 times per day, one being motn. I am so so tired of waking up in the middle of the night considering my baby has slept all night since 4 months. But I don’t make enough without it.

2 months ago I dropped to 5ppd. I went from 32oz a day to around 29-30. Baby drinks 30 so that was fine with me. Then I got my period and my supply dropped again. To around 28oz a day.

Then… 2 weeks ago I was so tired I decided to skip my motn pump ONCE. Ever since then, I’m making 25-26 oz a day. Baby drinks 28-30 so this is not great. But how can me skipping once do this?? I’ve gone back into routine, haven’t skipped at all, and supply just isn’t recovering. It makes me so sad because my supply shouldn’t be this sensitive at 8mo postpartum. 😔

My amounts decreased all around the board. I was producing 9 at 3am, now I’m around 7-7.5. 5 ish per day pump, now 3-4.

Long story short, my baby breaks out in a rash around his mouth when he eats dairy. I’ve tried yogurt, butter, and today I tried cheese shreds.

He tolerated small amounts of yogurt the first time when introducing the allergen no issue. Then as I started giving him more he breaks out each time. He has had onions cooked in butter in a puree and didn’t break out on that, but everything else he does. Today he had tiny cheese shreds I put in his mouth and he still broke out.

He breaks out in splotchy red spots around mouth and chin and nowhere else. Doesn’t act bothered, and it fades within the hour.

The pediatrician has said 3 times on 3 separate picture questions that it looks like a contact rash. But.. I can’t help but wonder if it’s actually an allergy that I’m ignoring. Mostly because for example today, it didn’t really touch his face very much since I put the cheese in his mouth. I guess I’m asking if anyone else has experienced this? I have a near panic attack every-time I give him dairy, but I don’t want to not give it to him if it’s not a true allergy.
