What should I do if my baby, who is currently being mixed-fed, is not drinking formula?

Patient's question:

The baby is on mixed feeding, and now for some reason they won't drink formula anymore. What should I do?
Past treatment history and effectiveness: None
What kind of help do you expect: What to do when the baby won't drink formula?

Doctor's answer:

A four-month-old baby is being mixed-fed, and now they don't drink much formula. This situation is nothing to worry too much about. Because this could just be a temporary phase, or it could be due to individual differences in the baby. Some babies are simply picky about solid foods. If you approach this with a calm mindset, it should be fine.
Additionally, since the child doesn’t like drinking formula, you could consider giving them some probiotics and wait to see how they react. Alternatively, you could try some traditional Chinese medicine formulations that are designed to improve appetite and aid digestion.
