I am trying to introduce formula to my dd she is 19 weeks old and has taken the bottle previously with EBM and formula No problem. She recently had two episodes of projectile vomitting after formula,{ so we changed brand} but now she won't even entertain the idea of taking the bottle!
What can I do?????

Give it someone else to do and go out. If she thinks there's any chance of bf then she'll have none of it, if she's anything like mine was.
The other thing we had to do was bottle feed somewhere really busy - bowling alley springs to mind... - so she was so busy gawping around she forgot to object to the bottle in her mouth.
Oh and we got one of DH's friends, who she had a huge crush on at the age of six months, to come and chat to her while he stuck the bottle in her mouth.
Hope that helps x

i have heard that it helps to give a bottle the same time everyday - put a breastpad with your ebm next to babies nose.
