Just that, I'm introducing express milk by bottle to baby for hubby to feed also I'm just wondering as breast fed he will let me know when he's done but how do I know with express bottled milk?

My DD would move her head away from the bottle and when she was a bit older bat it away with her hand. There is no way I could have force fed her anymore than she wanted. Just look out for signals and you should be fine.
