DD won't take a bottle HELP!

I go back to work in December and I need her to take a bottle. We got her to take 2oz out of a Tommee tippee but then refused it. We've tried, playtex, dr browns, Medela nuk and Tommee tippee. Any tricks anyone has is appreciated!!!

Logan HATED bottles! We bought probably 8 different kinds and he hated them all.

He only took a few ounces of BM in a bottle while I was at work all day (maybe 3 ounces???) and then would BF like a champ as soon as I came home and at least 2 more times before bed.

My ped. was totally fine with that and he gained weight like nobody's business so I know it was okay!

It can be really stressful when baby won't take a bottle, but usually they will just make up for it when you're home. My ped. says that's common.

Are you giving the bottle? Are you around when the bottle is being given?

Many BF babies will refuse the bottle if they know they can "get it from the tap"

They won't starve...eventually when they realize they are not going to get it any other way...they will give in!
