Best bottles for breast fed baby to take...

[sadiesadiemarriedlady]

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp, my 3 month old refuses to take a bottle. Has anyone got any good bottle recommendations?

No sorry but hopefully this will bump it for you.

Thank you x

This might help until someone with more experience turns up. I never could get my DC1 to take a bottle and hardly ever tried with DC2, although she would take one sometimes.

Hi...I had exactly the same problem with my dd. I didn't get her to take a bottle until 7 months, which caused more than a tiny bit of frustration for me, so I know completely what you're going through! Anyway, the bottle I eventually got her to take was an NUK one, with a latex teat. The latex is softer than silicone, so I think it's meant to be more like your nipple. You can get the bottles in boots, but I seem to remember only being able to get the latex teats from their website.

I think the best thing to do though is just pick a bottle (any bottle!)and stick with it. Try it once a day, every day, at the same time, and eventually you'll get there. Good luck!

Breastflow bottles work for us, teat works similar to breast (supposedly). Also, on offer at TK Maxx at the moment if you do decide to go for this one.
