How do I get DS to take a bottle again?
DS is 7 months and rarely gets a bottle. The length of time between bottles has become progressively longer over the months because I haven't gone out for extended periods. Last time I tried to give him a bottle he refused it. I figured I will try to give him a little BM in a bottle every day but are there any other tricks to get him to take a bottle again?

Have you switched to a faster flow nipple? DC may have less patience at this point.
I was in a very similar boat with DD and never really made much effort to change it. She's now 13 months and still only wants to nurse so even adding regular milk is tough. Definitely keep at it!

Have you tried having someone else give him the bottle? Once he sees you he associates you with breast feeding therefore you need someone else to give him the bottle and he will get it eventually. And then eventually he will take it from you.
