Plainfield @ ATT-IS @ USA @ ... Lines: 26 Summary: try: No mother, temperature, earlier (original article left out by mistake ... topic was a baby who would NOT accept formula, circa four months ...) We had similar, but not so severe problems only a few short months ago. Suggestion 1: do NOT let your wife give her (or was it him?) the bottle; she'll smell the (natural) milk. Suggestion 2: our baby was fussy about temperature - just like the 3 bears (sorry, I can't help it), some are too hot, some are too cold, others are just right! Suggestion 3: start BEFORE she gets too hungry; its almost hopeless after she start the incessant screaming - both because she is then determined, and because you'll lose your cool! Good luck. ... now if only I can get MY baby to eat real food ... Ask me again in a few months! -- John Burgess ATT-IS Labs, So.
