OK this might qualify as my most stupid post so far, but if you can't ask here...
we are currently having battle of the bottle as my 5.5mth ex-bfd baby refuses to take EBM in a bottle or cup. I'm going back to work and getting worried that she'll starve!
anyway we've been trying her with the bottle once or twice every day and she gets quite distressed - I know this is normal for a bf baby. But what I notice is that after trying her with the bottle, her breath smells really milky, almost sicky, it's really not nice. She doesn't smell like that after a bf.
I have tasted the milk and tbh I thought it was a bit minging! But I thought that was just because it was so sweet and "different"..
I know the milk she gets is fine obviously - is there any reason it would change when expressed? If not, why is she so stinky with it?!
PS Having read the other thread re drinking own milk I would just like to clarify I drank it from the bottle
