Tips for getting DD to take a bottle

2 replies

I think I've left it a bit late but does anyone have any tips to get DD (17 weeks) to take a bottle? I started DD1 on one a day at about 8 weeks to get her used to it but just haven't got round to it with DD2 and she just completely refuses. I've tried Lansinoh, Dr Brown's, NUK and MAM bottles but no luck. I'd just love to be able to pop out for a couple of hours without worrying that she wants a feed (I'm suffering from anxiety so really struggle to leave her because of this).

Have you tried getting someone else to try whilst you (and your boobs) aren’t there?

Have tried it whilst I'm still in the house but not the same room.
