best bottles for ebf baby

DD is 11 weeks old and is EBF. I want to go out for an evening before I lose the will to live and claim some identity back and want to try and express for DH to give her a bottle.

I saw on here a few weeks ago about a way to feed the baby without her getting as confused... do you know what this was?

Also, my main question is what are the best bottles to use. We tried tommee tippee with a tiny bit of formula and gaviscon last week and she just didnt know what to so (but not sure if it was formula and not my milk or the teat/bottle).

Can anyone recommend bottles which are best for one off bottles?

Also, if this works, I am hoping to express to let DH give her a bottle every now and then.

Thanks

one of the mums on my post natal thread is in france and is succesfully bfeeding her little one, he has been slow to gain weight but there has been no mention of formula top ups and he also feeds from breast and bottle as she has had to go back to work. i think it seems no matter where you live that advice varies from one health expert to another.

and i was going to agree with tiktok about the language issue with ukrainianmum

and many bfed babies will never take a bottle, my first three never would, i would say for an 11wk old that wont feed from a bottle a little sippy cup may be an option.
