I have just started expressing and trying my dd (6 wks) with a bottle. She is not really interested. Any tips on expressing or getting babies to take the odd bottle?

have you tried squeezing the teat so it gets some milk on it before it goes near your dd? So it smells/tastes right.
Try stroking her cheek with your finger to stimulate her to root and simulate the skin on skin bit of bfing.

dennya - you might get more responses if you re post under 'b and b feeding'. Also do a search 'cos there is loads of advice on here already.
Good luck.
