Mixed feeding

[lallymc]

any tips on getting my 11 week old to take a bottle so I can sleep through at least one feed??

Does your lo take a dummy? Maybe try taking the dummy out and slipping the bottle in.
Try in the dark so they can't really see it.

If you haven't been giving bottles up to now then it might be too late - some babies are just bottle refusers if they're not introduced early. Not too long till you can try a sippy cup, though!

He took a bottle at 4 weeks no probs but has slowly decided he doesn't want one! Takes up to an hour to give an ounce so I end up feeding anyway :(
We havent bothered with a dummy as he is a good self settler at night, he now won't take one anyway. Was feeding at 3/4 hr intervals from birth now I get 2 1/2 hours between each if I'm lucky.

Have you tried getting someone else to give the bottle or giving it to him in his pushchair rather than holding him.
