12 month old not nursing for 2 days

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
Help!
DD is just about to turn 1yo. She has been a great nursling up until earlier this week. She stopped nursing in the morning, then before nap, then before dinner and now it has been 2 days and she has not had any breastmilk. I did give her some goat milk this afternoon because I did not want her to get dehydrated in the 90 degree heat.

So if she won't nurse, what do I do? She eats 3 "meals" a day - always very, very good healthy food but that just can't be enough. Should I give her goat milk or formula until she starts taking the breast again? I am going to keep offering her breastmilk for as long as necessary to keep the nursing relationship going. Oh, and I lent my pump to my sister and don't have one right now so that is not a real option.

What should I do??
