Do you feed solids too? Seems like you will have to breastfeed untill you find something that works for you. You should try to eliminate one breastfeeding session at a time. Maybe increase the ammt of milk you put in the foods to get the needed milk?

Hey there - wow that would be pretty worrying. Ok maybe try rice cereal with breast milk - start with it quite runny and slowly increase the thickness of it? Have you tried sweet potato - always a hit. At 1 she should also be able to handle finger foods - eggy bread is one of my dd's faves. What about yogurt - sorry i am just listing anything i can think of that my dd loves. Rice cakes with avo or cream cheese? Cottage cheese? Pumpkin is also another good one. Can you go and see a specialist or something? I think by 1 your dd should definately be eating solids as well as milk. Sorry i cant be more help - let me know how you go.
