I’m self employed so need to go back to work next month

I’m only going 1 day a week to start with, and will only be doing 6 hour days

Little one will be 16 weeks old and is EBF. She takes a little bit from a bottle but not a lot at all and refuses it quite often. I only work around the corner from where my partner will be with her. Is it completely delusional of me to hope he can bring her to me for feeds if he’s struggling with a bottle? I’ll feed her before I leave and then she should only need max 2 feeds in the 6 hours IF she is adamant on not having a bottle

We’ve got 5 weeks to keep trying and are going to keep trying everyday until then. I have a NUK one which she takes to better than any others so we’re just sticking with that one and getting my partner to try

any tips for getting her to have one would be amazing! I don’t think so much it’s the type or brand of bottle I think it’s just the entire thing to be honest. He did feed her last night laying on her side and she was much much better as it was more paced

How much will she take from the bottle @Freddie15VES?

BF babies take on average 25 Floz in 24 hours DP if it's been 2 hours since her kart feed, she's unlikely to take more than 2floz/60ml.
