Baby refusing bottle

5 replies

Apologies I couldn't find where to post this.

Baby girl is 18 weeks almost 19 weeks old.

We have tried everything to get her on the bottle as she is fully breastfed. I want to stop breastfeeding next month due to starting university and she'll be attending nursery.

Has anyone got any advice as to how I can get her to start the bottle.

We have tried a range of different ones and she drank out of the munchkin one only once when a relative was feeding her however she will not take it from any of us (mum, dad and grandma).

Also she doesn't take the dummy so I'm not sure whether that makes it worse

Have you tried using different brands of bottles?

I also had to wean DD from breast feeding when she was 11 months. She hated every bottle apart from the Avent one

Doidy cup?
Mam bottle?
Dr Brown’s bottle?
You being entirely out of the house when someone else tries feeding her?

Interested in this thread?

I'd try a cup, lots of babies who refuse a bottle can manage a cup really well.

Doidy cup I haven't tried I thought she might be a little young but will do!
