why does baby refuse formula?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Babies refusing formula usually comes from a few common reasons. The most frequent is taste and temperature difference — especially a baby used to breastmilk may refuse formula when they find it unfamiliar. Also, during teething, gum tenderness can make sucking painful. Beyond that, diarrhea, constipation, gas pain, or reflux can lead to formula refusal. Sometimes your baby is simply full — watch their cues rather than pushing them to finish. If refusal comes with discomfort, fever, continuous vomiting, or poor weight gain, talking to your pediatrician is the right move.
