[quote=Anonymous]Going through something very similar with my 8.5mo. Until last week he has refused absolutely everything but breastfeeding (no pumped milk, bottles, solids of any sort). Going through testing with GI right now. Last week he accepted a spoon with a little chocolate pudding, and then a little sorbet, and we're thrilled. (GI said we should try everything and not worry about nutrition; goal is to get him eating something in order to avoid feeding tube.) Suggestion: if you haven't tried it, we had a little success getting him to take milk with a syringe this week (like a kid's Tylenol syringe). While he rejects all bottles and cups, he tolerated the syringe enough to get a couple of tablespoons of milk (a big success for us). Good luck--I'm right with you as this is a stressful, frustrating and scary thing to be working through. [/quote]
