DS will not take a bottle from either myself or my DH,although he drinks from a cup held by us.
What we're looking to do is give him a bottle of formula for his last feed to see if it helps him sleep longer (he still wakes twice and I work 3 days a week = knackered)
Here's what we've tried ...
Warming the teat
Warmer milk
Colder milk
Different teats/bottles
Under the arm trick
Feeding lying down/sitting up
Distraction techniques
And a whole lot of perseverance!!!
Any other ideas???
