Introducing a bottle at 6 weeks?

I’ve been EBF our daughter from birth and she’s 6 weeks old tomorrow. It was always my intention to introduce an expressed bottle once BF had been established but now 6 weeks has come I’m really unsure on what to do?

Just looking for anyone experience with either? Should I just carry on no bottles? I am really enjoying BF her, it’s more the cluster feeding that is intense.

Following with interest as I am wondering the same! I really want to introduce a bottle so I can go get my hair done or go for lunch in the knowledge my baby won't wake up starving 😩

I introduced a bottle of expressed milk a day from 3 weeks old and my daughter has been fine with it so it's really just what you'd prefer to do

I would. I don't with my first and regretted it. I did with all the others!
