so my daughter is 4 months old and had a couple of bottles of milk when she was around 2-4 weeks old due to me having sore and cracked nipples. She hasn’t had one from around 6 weeks old though. But I’m done. I need a break. Even just one feed a day.
we are using MAM bottles and formula. We have wasted all the breast milk I had pumped and frozen over the last two weeks with trying a bottle every day. She has taken a 2oz bottle about a week ago but nothing since. She’s getting really upset when we try now. I’ve read so much online about positions, who should do it, what environment is best, how to heat the teat a little, try when she’s not too hungry and not too full, first thing in the morning. I’m at a loss. I’m going to get in touch with the HV in the morning but any other tips would be sooooooo appreciated!
