Hey everyone,

I need some advice. My son is 8 months old, and until he was 7 months, I breastfed him. But due to some medical issues I have and allergies he developed, we switched to formula. Now I’m really struggling to get him to drink 24 ounces a day, and it’s making me feel like a bad mom, like I’m starving him. :thinking:

Here are a few quick tips: try different formulas, offer smaller amounts more frequently, and see if warming the formula helps. Sometimes using a sippy cup or mixing in a bit of breast milk can also make a difference. It might take some time, so try to be patient and persistent.
