hi s !try and feed in between meals .relax before feeding. feed your mind with positive thoughts. take a warm compress before feeding. a baby at this age needs 500 to 700 ml of milk everyday. if his weight gain is fine and number of wet nappies is also ok, u really need not be concerned. here is a blog you would find useful. https://www.parentune.com/parent-blog/milk-intake-for-your-babies-infants/619?ptref=sa0l000030g00h7

she takes my breast milk but for other milk she cries when she sees it.. I feed her milk with spoon.. earlier she used to take bottle for milk.. but then I made her quit her bottle habit.. then for 1. 5 months she was happily taking milk with spoon.. and now suddenly when she sees milk in bowl she cries .. and when I feed her any solid food with spoon she happily eatS it.. she never takes milk with spoon and sometimes she cries for sooji kheer or shake also... she loves to have daal etc..

try changing the bowl and spoon.. take some attractive color.. may be she has developed some negative associations with it.. if it doesn't work ,u could try giving a sipper.

thanks for ur earlier advice.. am just scared if it's fine she takes my breast milk only at nine months age.. and other soild food like daal or vegetables.. no other milk except breast milk will be sufficient or not?

depends on how often and the quantity she is taking.. which would be indicated through weight gain and number of wet nappies.
