My DS (first) is nearly 5 weeks now and is ebf which is going well. I'm happy breastfeeding and he's gaining a lot of weight so I've no wish to switch to a bottle or even to introduce one regularly (eg for night feeds).
But I've got a few events over the summer which I'd like to be able to leave him with dh for an evening with some expressed milk. When should I try him with a bottle. I'm worried that if I just wait until say June he will refuse it, but I don't want to confuse him now.
If he does take a bottle do I need to regularly give him one so he doesn't forget? Am I making a big deal out of nothing?!
