My little boy has become so interested in the world around him that whenever we are out, he would refuse to have his bottle feed, which is usually at his tea time. What can I give him instead?
He is normally a good eater & rarely fusses with his food. He will eat off a spoon & is happy with finger feedings. Am thinking of bread, biscuits etc, but how much should I be giving in place of a 9 oz milk? Or fruit? How much is enough? Should it be a combination? Need some help pls, tks.

My 13 mos started to refuse his bottle feed at tea time since around 9-10 mos too. Fortunately, he's a good eater the rest of his meals. So at tea time, I replaced his milk by giving him yogurt with fruits/ toast with cheese.
By the way, I still try to introduce the milk first and if he still refuses it, I'll top him up with the snacks mentioned above. He sometimes drinks a little, sometimes not. Depends on his appetite really. Haha!

mombloxy, we added rice cereal and gave it to him either with a teaspoon or using his sippy cup. he won't take the bottle anyway, but i feel that he needs that feed to be a milk one rather than other stuff. he usally has 6ounces of formula this way.
