I started dcg1 on Monday. The first day she didn't eat and hardly drank. Second day she ate a bit but didn't drink. Third day she ate well and didn't drink. Today (fourth day) again no drinking but she is eating.

I have tried milk in bottle and in sippy. Water in bottle and in sippy.

Dcm says that she is strictly bottle fed at home.

I have talked to parents each night and they don't seem concerned. I am concerned, though, and would like to see some fluids going in! Lots of wet diapers.

I spoke to dcm again last night and asked if she was drinking a lot when she got home. She said no. I asked if this was normal for her and she told me that her bottle is usually warmed but she wanted to break her of the habit.

Would you be heating the milk anyways and let dcm deal with breaking the habit?

Would you be concerned about little to no fluids being taken in?

How much time would you give to adjust?
