Baby started refusing the bottle.

[LucyB1]

My dd is 9 weeks and has started to refuse my expressed milk from a bottle. She has drunk from a bottle a few times before so not sure why she won't now. Does anyone know how we can get her to drunk from it again?

My lo has been doing the same, from about 10/11 weeks. He was fine before that.

I don't have the answer necessarily, but he did take about 3 oz from a bottle last week when he was super hungry and there was no chance of being offered the boob (I wasn't around).

So, I'm hoping that he'll take it when needs must. Why don't you try it when's she's starving? Get someone else to give it to her while you disappear (so she knows boob isn't an option).

Thank you. May give that a try. I'm sure the survival instinct would kick in if she was really hungry but I hate letting it get that far. Need to toughen up I suppose.
