You know your baby's hungry... but no matter what you try, they just won't eat. Don't worry: help is at hand!
Does your baby resist being fed, even when you know they must be hungry?
Is the bottle constantly met with screaming, gagging, or vomiting?
You must be at your wit's end - but don't worry: you're not the only parent who has been through this. In fact, up to 50% of babies have feeding difficulties.
It's known as 'bottle aversion', and most parents don't realize just how common it is.
You know your baby is capable of feeding, but for some reason, they just refuse to eat.
The more you try to feed them, the more they refuse - and the more desperate you become.
You're tired, your baby's tired, and nothing the doctor has suggested is working.
