DD is 4 months and EBF, which I plan for her to be for the foreseeable hopefully.
However mid Jan I'm starting an evening course that I'm really excited about, which starts at 7pm one night a week. I can't really see a way around DH doing her night-time routine that night which is cool, but obviously I need to get her to accept a bottle before thrn. Unless I feed her earlier than normal and DH figures out how to get her to sleep without a nork...
I started expressing this morn and got 100mls...is that reasonable?
The only bottles I've got are Tommee Tippee 0+ ones, so I suspect they have a very slow flow. I just tried her with it and she had a few sucks, bites and then tears...so is now firmly attached to my right nork. Happy baby!
Soooo...any recommendations for decent bottles to get? And/or tips to help me introduce the bottle painlessly? Or would a cup be better...if, which cup and how?!
So many questions! BF is so much easier!
