Hello
My Baby is 6 months now and am looking to get her off the Boob. Been advised to try MAM bottle becuase she is so confused with Avent teats! Bless her.
Any tips please? She has been going to sleep after a good feed on Breast, not sure how I am going to get her to sleep without.
Thank you...

My DS did not like bottles at all when he started at nursery, in the end we tried the soft avent spouts for a trainer cup, they go in the bottle so you won't need extra stuff. In the end he took the bottle happily at nursery but never took one from me! I still bf him to sleep at home, and at 23 months he only drinks from an open cup now so no faffing with cleaning beakers and spouts - hooray!

Thanks will take a look at the spouts.
So when he took bottle at nursey, what did you give him to settle at nights?
