She is 7 months old, theething and eats only 2 or 3 oz every 2 hours, I tried baby food and cereal and she does not take it .... My mom sais that it is because her gums hert asf, but I am worried because she is not a fat baby like I wish somethimes but she is all so not akting sick, she is smiling a looooottt (thank god) and plays a lot too.... She is not cring only if she is hungry or sleepy. Can you help me ? Do you have a trick on how to feed this one ? Rolling Eyes :p Laughing

Ok I probably haven't got the full story but isn't it unusual for a 7month old to be feeding 2 hourly,
i understand new-borns are on demand around every 4 hours and by 7 months I would be expecting you to be feeding only a few times a day and giving cooled boiled water to drink in between times and maybe starting on some real soft puree's like a banana mashed through a sieve, only put a tiny dab in her mouth at one time though and let her think about it and mush it around her mouth.

Try posting in the teen pregnancy forum - these girls have some real good advice to give.
