Okay, I have an idea...

My little one is almost 8 weeks old and refuses to take a bottle or pacifier. I’m going back to work soon and I’m starting to really panic.

My husband, mother in-law and I have tried the Mam, Nuk, Tommee Tipsy, and Dr.Brown bottles. I just ordered a Minbie bottle to try as well.

Since ( we think ) she doesn’t like the plastic nipples why don’t i try a nipple shield when breastfeeding?! Maybe she will start to associate the plastic with nursing and take a bottle?!

It’s going backwards in terms of what a nipple shield is used for but maybe it will work?

Has anyone else tried this? Or have any advice on what else we should try?!
