Refusing bottle
My daughter is 14 weeks and is EBF. We introduced a bottle at 6 weeks. She refused the Dr. Browns that had worked with our first. I bought a como tomo and she didn’t do great with it, but was taking a few ounces here and there. We probably did not give her another bottle until 9 weeks and she is refusing to drink from it. I’ve tried 3 brands with different flow nipples and all she does is chew on it or rolls it around with her tongue before she starts swatting it and crying.
I took off additional time, but will be going back to work on May 20th. I try a bottle several times a day with her for the past week, but she just won’t drink from it. My husband also tries, but is met with the same refusal.
My first baby was also EBF, but took a bottle no problem.
Any suggestions? Things you have tried that have worked?
