Help, my wife is back to work on Monday and we've tried all week to get baby on to the bottle. He hates it. I thought he'd get used to it but he's just got used to hating it. He cries every time the bottle is anywhere near his mouth. We need him on the bottle for Monday when he starts nursery.
-were using breast milk, fresh so there cant be a temperature issue
-I've (dads) been doing the bottle feed with mum out of the room
-we've tried once a day for around 15 minutes for 5 days
-we haven't tried different bottle/nipples yet as he cries as soon as the nipples on his lips
when he was 1 month old I gave him the bottle during the night and he was fine we've stopped for 3 months and now he's older he's having problems.
I know we probably should have started earlier but we had 2 hurricanes in 1 week and priorities had to be compromised.
Any help please? My wife is part time, and the nursery is only 2 minutes from her office so we have got a plan B if it all goes horribly wrong.
