Not sure if there is a thread in this or not but I am in need of advice/help/ideas. I want to start my DS2 taking a bottle of expressed milk/or formula but he just will not take a bottle! I have tried 2 different types of bottles/teats (the breast mimic type ones!!) but he just won't do it. He is now nearly 15 weeks old and I have been trying off and on since he was about 7 weeks. He has taken one or two in that time.

Any ideas please??? Do I just need to keep at it? I will need him to take a bottle in the next few months because I am due to have surgery. If I can't get him to take a bottle at what age can a baby take a cup of milk for their feed?

I had no issues with DS1 - he took milk from anything!!]]> Sun, 10 Jul 2011 21:19:42 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39861&PID=1360512&title=bottle-refusal-also-in-first-baby-forum#1360512
