9 1/2 month old has always been a horrible puker. Still is. According to the doctor, he'll just outgrow it. Formula changes had no affect, adding solids had no affect.
The only consistent thing I've noticed is that when he drinks for a cup (and is upright at the table), there is less puking.
As an extra joy, he and the other baby are now crawling. You can imagine the disgusting stuff that happens when he pukes multiple times, and they both decide to finger paint with it before I can even get it cleaned up.
So, I stopped giving him bottles here, and he gets a cup. He CAN use a cup, but like most things, will often refuse. He flails his arms and screams. Today he saw me give 12 week old a bottle and had a huge tantrum. He wants a bottle. So, I made him a 4 oz bottle. He lays down with it (the only way he'll drink it). Sure enough..puke puke puke.
So, do I:
Stop offering him bottle period.
Offer bottles at the table, in his seat (he will most likely tantrum over that).
He's 9 1/2 months. He's strong willed, he's part time. He has fits about a lot of things that don't always go his way around here. Don't say term...
. He's not THAT part time..usually 3-4 days a week.
