Patient's question:
A five-month-old baby girl, who has been drinking formula since birth, has also been breastfeeding, but it's as if she's not eating at all. She only nurses on each side for less than a minute. She continues to breastfeed because it's convenient to soothe her to sleep. At two and a half months, she already started resisting the bottle, and I fed her while walking around to comfort her. By four months, I started offering her rice porridge, but she didn't like it either. The formula has never been changed.Doctor's answer:
The situation you are describing, a five-month-old female baby. Due to insufficient breast milk, the child is being fed formula. At two months old, the child was resistant and didn't want to drink formula. By four months old, we had already started offering rice porridge, but the child also disliked it. I don't know what's going on. The second sense is very important for babies when they are born. Nowadays, breastfeeding is highly recommended. After giving birth, early suckling and early breastfeeding are encouraged. If the child is fed formula from birth with a bottle, they will not drink breast milk. If the child is accustomed to breastfeeding, they will be resistant to drinking formula.
