I’ve got a 6 month old daughter who has been exclusively breastfed since birth. I’m done with feeding now, I’ve surpassed my goal and would really like to get other people involved with feeding and also eventually leave her with people to be looked after. I’ve had lots of issues with pumping and it’s just no longer an option for me any more.
So over the past few weeks we’ve been trying to introduce her to formula, we’ve tried 4 different brands, countless bottles and different flows, we’ve tried powder and pre made, different temperatures, you name it! We’ve even left her for 6 hours without a feed and still she just flat out refuses formula milk!!!! I’m at a complete loss. I’ve tried google and it just doesn’t seem to be a common thing. Just to note she has absolutely no issues taking a bottle, she will drink expressed milk from a bottle absolutely fine!! I’m really hoping there will be people on here who have been through this, I’m so ready to end my breastfeeding journey and take a bit of pressure off myself!
