Hi everyone,
My boy is 25 weeks and he's a happy and healthy baby. I have been breastfeeding him since birth, with the occasional bottle and everything went well, but he had a cold about a month ago and now refuses the bottle completely. THis is getting a bit problematic as I am going back to work three days a week and I need to get him used to taking a bottle. I started introducing solids a couple of weeks ago and this is going well, and he drinks about 2-3 oz of water a day from a beaker.
I have tried so far:
- Three types of bottle (Avant, Timmi and Playtex) and he won't drink from any of them
- Expressed breast milk and formula
- having someone else to give him a bottle, at different times of day
- he doesn't take dummies either
Any tips? Tricks?
Many thanks!!
