I was in-store today, mainly attempting to do boring end of year tax today, when a lovely mother came in and asked me how she could get her baby off breast milk and how to get her baby to drink formula.
Upon reflection I laugh at the speed and response I gave and how easy it was to come up with. I started by asking her had she ever tried formula, her response was a big NO and then gawked when I said it tasted like cardboard - haa.
"From my experience most babies have an extremely sweet tooth", I said, and you really can't blame them. I then recommended that she add 2 x teaspoons of organic Holle Apple & Bilberry baby food (or any organic fruit baby food). Given that her baby was 7 months old she agreed that this would really work and couldn't believe she didn't think of it.
This advice was obviously given knowing that the mother had tried absolutely everything to get her baby to drink formula. If you would like more information on formula feeding babies click here.
Hope this helps.
