How to deal with a 4-month-old baby who suddenly doesn't eat much milk

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

The baby has physiological milk aversion, resulting in poor appetite. If the milk aversion lasts for more than two months, the baby's weight and height development may be affected. You can supplement the baby with specialized vitamins or consult a doctor about whether to use appetite stimulants to regulate gastrointestinal function and enhance the development of taste and appetite. The baby may no longer be interested in monotonous-tasting formula and may prefer to try new flavors. Avoid forcing the baby to drink milk, as this may lead to resistance. When introducing complementary foods, it's best to offer a variety of foods with different flavors, preferably with natural flavors, without adding seasonings (for children under one year old).
