Suggestions on getting DS to take a bottle

DS # 2 is 5 weeks, I have been EBF. I need to start pumping and introducing a bottle, how did your babies do? Any suggestions? I will still be nursing him when I am with him, but I need him to take bottles so when he is being watched by DH, grandparents, etc., I don't have to rush home. DS # 1 did both breast and bottle from pretty much the beginning so I have no experience with this. We used Playtex Drop Ins for DS # 1, so we plan on using them again. TIA for any advice or tips you may have!

I would just try giving him the bottle yourself first and see how he does. If he has an issue, try having someone else like DH give him the bottle with you out of the room. In the beginning I had DH give him one bottle every day to get DS used to someone else feeding him. We never had an issue. GL!
