Q.

My baby takes feeds when she is drowsy or asleep but when she is awake she refuses to drink milk instead she will play with the bottle nipple, can anyone suggest me how to overcome this issue, she is been doing this from past 10days.

A. Teething could be happening and probably which is why your child is refusing to take the feed and playing with the bottle you just have to keep trying from your side hopefully the child is going to accept the feed over the period but currently this seems completely alright
