Our second daughter is 11 weeks old and I return to work in 2 weeks time. We started bottle feeding her with expressed milk once a day when she was 4 weeks old and all went well although she would never go back on to the bottle if she came off during a feed. Three weeks ago she suddenly started to refuse the bottle completely and now screams, splutters and chokes if the teat comes into her mouth. We have tried Avent, Tommie Tippee and NUK teats. Today I had to be in work and missed 2 feeds. We thought she would accept the bottle at the second one as she would be so hungry but just screamed again and went v pale.
Any suggestions?
