Any tips on getting a breastfed baby to take a bottle of expressed milk? I absolutely LOVE breastfeeding but I'd also love to take a bath in peace one day 😂 right now I only have the tommee tippee closer to nature bottles. Is it worth investing in some better bottles or should I just 'suck it up' (hahaha pun intended)😂 and get over the fact that he doesn't like bottles.
I just got clawed in the eye and gave up and baby is now happily snoozing attached to my boob.



@lady_glitter_sparkles yeah my partner tried once but Owen hated it and screamed so much it kind of put my partner off. He was really disheartened. Will see if I can get him to have another go 🤔 xx
@dooniekay, my partner was the same so I used to get my Mum try. She was much less fazed by her going nuts at her 😂 xx
@lady_glitter_sparkles ah mums are fab! Mine is 7 hours away but when she's here she's amazing help xx
I never found a bottle my first daughter would take but with my second she took to a minbie bottle. It took until she was 10 months but we got there. Good luck! X
My son refused the bottle. I even tried that MiniBe one and he wouldn’t take it so I have no advice but good luck, I hope you find one he’ll take.
I'm okay if he doesn't take one in the end as I was only planning on doing 1 bottle a day. Will definitely keep expressing milk to use in baths and stuff
@dooniekay, oh I get it. I loved breastfeeding(actually just started weaning this week 😫) but having them be able to take even one bottle a day would be amazing. Mama freedom. 😂
I used NUK bottles with Layla she was breast and formula fed and she took to them really well! The teat mimics the shape of a nipple xx
We went through lots of different bottles with my daughter. She eventually took the Lansinoh one, but never off me. xx
