I am desperate for some help ladies!!! Please!!! My daughter is almost 6 weeks old and has only been breastfed. But I have to get her on only formula because I have kidney disease and they have to start me on strong medications. I bought her slow flow anti colic Tommie tippie bottles and Similac formula. But she doesn't really understand what the bottle is for. She chokes on it and spits out the formula. I finally got her to take one once twice but then she threw it all up!!! I am so frustrated right now. She cries when I try to give her a bottle too. Any advice would be great. Thanks!!!

I use mams. The pacifier brand... Works great on my daughter
I use Adiri bottles. they're soft and shaped just like a breast and the air flow is on the bottom so there's no air going through the milk. I would get your baby used to taking breast milk through a bottle first then slowly graduate to formula. Cause you're going from boob and mommas milk straight to a strange bottle and strange tasting stuff that comes out so fast she downy know how to take it
and as for avent natural nipples they are the worst for us. they are so hard. we hate them
I have a ebf baby and the best nipple we have found after trying almost every bottle on the market is lansinoh Momma bottles with natural wave nipples. not as much gagging and after a few minutes he gets the hang of it. good luck
Yeah like @rileysmommy2016 said Avent has the natural nipples those are the ones that act like a nipple. the classic nipples are not as good
Right I totally forgot about avent ! Yes try that one next !
Thanks moms!!! I think I will try Avent next. @rileysmommy2016 @noahbearsmommie @twinmamma2015
Try avent they have the nipples that are act as a boob nipple
ok yeah zero is best, I know Dr. Browns and Avent work really well, and they have to work really hard with those nipples to get their bottle which is what she is used to doing when she nurses. Sometimes it is just as simple as changing the bottle brand. I went thru 6 different types of bottles with one of my boys.
I have Tommie tipped too but my sister uses it on my niece and she really doesn't like it. So I recommend the other two.
She is using zero month size nipple. @twinmamma2015
I would try you leaving the room while she's hungry and try having someone else feed her because she's used to the boob haha
@babyvicky2016, she will adjust eventually. My daughter got strangled every feeding for like a week when we switched to bottles but I love avent naturals
