somebody please give me some advice! My 7 month old EBF baby won’t take a bottle and I’m supposed to be going out for the night in a few nights and he just messes around with the bottle. I left him for one night when he was 5 months old and he eventually took a bottle but it was a struggle. He won’t drink from a soppy cup or a straw as he just chews it. I woukd be leaving the house at around 5 and he usually goes to sleep at around 7 but drinks mulk throughout the night for comfort to get him back to sleep. Can anybody give me some advice please?

My little girl is 9 months and is ebf and she used to chew on her bottles rather than suck and drink them, its taken me a few weeks of one bottle every evening and shes only just about taking 4oz before she refuses, unfortunately thats not much help as you only have a few nights, is the night out avoidable? My advice would be to maybe rearrange for another night if possible and try get her to take a bottle in the meantime, otherwise whoever is looking after lo is going to be in for a rough night xx
