I tried everything with my DD2 and was at a total loss until I came across Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature. They look like a huge boob to me and DD accepted them on the second attmept. She is 2 in a few weeks and I now know (from other experiences with her) that she did genuinely have a problem adapting her feeding 'technique' - she still has a lot of problems eating now so I guess if she can use them they are worth a try for your DS.

Good luck.

we like the Mam teats and bottles (except that they are bright pink!) The teat looks nipple like and the bottle is made of polyproylene and is bisphenol-a free (a rather worrying chemical used in polycarbonate bottles such as Cr Brown, Avent and some Tommee Tippee bottles).

The thing that worked for us wasn't the bottle in the end but the temperature of the milk DD likes it hot (body temp.) and any thing cooler gets roundly rejected.
