DS is nearly 8 months and was EBF until we started solids. He's a resolute bottle refuser, and neither a sippy cup nor a cup will entice him to have formula or EBM
I'm really not enjoying BF'ing, DS scratches at my boobs, pinches them, fidgets throughout feeds (dark quiet room doesnt help) and his 2 bottom teeth sometimes cause discomfort whilst he's feeding. I'd love to stop BF'ing but even refusing to feed DS and offering a bottle didn't work, he went 10/11 hours before i gave in (he was eating solids and drinking water though)
Not sure where to go from here, continue BF'ing despite hating it or to go cold turkey. Any advice or experiences would be greatly received.
