Buzzing around

I have been quite busy at work these days, after finally settling down after all that travelling, it have been non stop project meetings and concalls in the office.  I am busy but i am enjoying it and at times felt more fulfilling than before.  

At home, things are not as smooth, Calyce continues her milk strike, and we have to start her on cereal, tried rice and oats cereal on her and she is responding very well.  However, today when i started her on organic cereal, she starts to reject again, i tried to spoon feed her milk and she continues to reject.  I simply don't understand if she is just rejecting because she is really not hungry or because she just hates food and milk.  I am so frustrated that i raised my voice at her tonight, she sensed my anger and started to frown and cries loudly.  I really don't understand why a baby can do without milk and food for as long as 6 hours.  When she finally felt tired at around 9pm plus we took the opportunity to feed her again and this time bottle feed.. she managed to take some milk down her throat after that.  I think she finally surrendered to hunger.. at 6 months, Calyce is still weighing 6 kg, and drinking just 500 - 600ml of milk per day. She is really very very underweight and she rejects food and fluid altogether.  I really on the verge of surrendering and giving up at times.  The PD prescribed her some medicine to improve her appetite, during the first 4 days of the medication, she responded extremely well and her appetite improves vastly but that only lasted for FOUR days... after which now she rejects her medication (every time will cry and struggle whenever she sees her syringe), rejects her milk and now even her cereal.. 神啊救救我吧,快来拯救我的宝贝啊!!!

At 6 months, Cepheus already tried all sorts of purees, biscuits, cereals and started porridge at 7 months. At 6 months, Calyce is still rejecting milk, cereal and doesnt like any of the puree i have prepared for her too.  Does she really hate food that much?? now i am contemplating of delaying her on porridge until she can take in cereal and milk in a consistently manner.  She needs all the nutrients from the baby food right now.  I really hate entertaining the thought that one day we may need to send her to KK for drip if she continues and worsen her milk strike.  That is the last thing we want on our mind now..
