Introducing bottle at 9 months?

[greygiraffe1]

Hello,

I have nearly 3 months before returning to work and want to resolve this!

My baby is nearly 9mo, exclusively breastfed and has occasionally taken a bottle of expressed milk in the past. However, now baby simply seems to refuse.

How can I encourage a bottle so late on in our feeding journey? Or should I encourage drinking from a cup of some sort instead?

I'm unsure on the best approach but want to make sure there is a way for baby to have milk whilst I'm away at work!

Any advice would be appreciated

If you're not going back for 3 months, I really wouldn't recommend introducing a bottle. A cup will be fine

Yeap another vote for a cup. Read the threads from people trying to wean from a bottle…you’ll just be kicking a can down the road.
