WE ARE OUT OF IDEAS... HELP!
Mommas... I am at my wits end here. 😔 I had my son June 21st. I returned back to work August 19th. I breastfeed and he gets the bottle when I’m not around to nurse him aka while I’m at work. He takes the bottle fine from everyone EXCEPT my daycare provider. He 95% of the time refuses to take the bottle from her. I nurse him before I go to work, he is supposed to have a mid morning bottle, I go at noon and feed him, supposed to have a mid afternoon bottle, and then I nurse him when I get off work. We have tried several different bottles at her house to try to get him to take it. We use the Como tomo bottles usually. As I stated before, he takes the bottle from everyone else just fine but our daycare provider. He is not suffering in the sense of losing weight or not gaining weight. He is actually a little chunk that keeps chunking up. However he cries because he’s hungry while he is there, but refuses to take the bottle. He’s literally punishing himself. 🤦🏼♀️We have also tried sending shirts I’ve worn that smell like me for her to wear or drape over her to get him to take the bottle, she’s tried his sound machine, different positions, she’s even had her husband attempt to give him the bottle when he gets home from work, and no luck. 🤦🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️ It’s like her house has a bad juju. 🤯 Do any of you have any recommendations or have ever heard of a baby refusing a bottle from only a specific person? Do you have any suggestions or ideas to try? We’ve tried just about everything we can think of, so I am reaching out to y’all. PLEASE HELP! 😩
