BFing moms-- do you ever have days when DC doesnt want to feed from your breast?
This happens every once in a while and its so frustrating... all day today when I've put DD to my breast, she has been crying... so I've had to give her two bottles... and then she's happy! Its so frustrating!!

Re: BFing moms-- do you ever have days when DC doesnt want to feed from your breast?
Nope, I had the opposite problem! She never was willing to take anything besides me despite many, many attempts. So it took me until after her first birthday to be able to spend more that 3 hours away from her. 
They like to drive us crazy it seems!

Nope, not untill she was 11 months and she got an ear infection from teething, and she just didn't want to BF anymore.... I guess it was a good thing cause I didn't have to worry about weening her!

It happened to me a couple of times. They say that babies sometimes go on a nursing strike. DC should come back around in a day or two.

opposite problem for me. He always thought the bottle was a chew toy.
That's great if your baby likes to switch it up.

Re: BFing moms-- do you ever have days when DC doesnt want to feed from your breast?
I never had this problem. But if you are, I suggest never giving her a bottle unless you absolutely have to. DS has never been a fan of the bottle. He didn't start getting one regularly until I went back to work when he was around 3 months. He'll take the bottle if needs to, but he's a confirmed boob man!
