[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid was low weight and was addicted to his bottle.  At age two that was all he would take.  We worked with a nutritionist and pediatrician and didn't give him a bottle for days.  We offered food and he refused.  It was very hard but I did not give him a bottle even though he asked.  Our caregivers had an extremely hard time with this.  It took about 3 days before he would eat and of course he was miserable.  He eats great now a year later.  Once he started eating food he did get his bottle back - needed all the calories we could get.

But truly our caregivers struggled and fought me on this plan.  I took my child to the doctor to monitor weight as she knew what I was doing.  If I had done it the caregivers way he's probably still only get nutrition from a bottle and as an older child introducing new thing now would be even harder.

Maybe she has a plan.[/quote]

This is DCUM, don't you know that nannies know everything and all parents are just lazy, selfish, slobs who neglect their children?
You were obviously depriving your child and neither you nor your pediatrician had any clue what you were doing just like OP's NF. [/quote]
