Can a baby not take to bottle bc of BF?

Question

Reading some comments that you should introduce a bottle 
My baby is nearly 6 weeks I’m worried incase that happens😬
I haven’t been made aware of this and now have worries (in comments)

Answer

I EBF and EP. my baby took bottles and breast the first two months... spectra, avent and tommee tippee bottles, then after thanksgiving he just refused to take bottles. He’s always refused soothies too.

Answer

Yup. It happens. I gave my baby a bottle within the first week so it wouldn’t happen. She takes any bottle. She’s 3 months.

Answer

Mine is 8 months old and won’t take one. I tried introducing at about 4 weeks old and I was kinda lazy about it so it just never stuck. He will play with the bottle more than drink from it.  I’m working from home so I’m with him 24/7 so doesn’t really bother me.

Answer

Yes!  Start introducing a bottle! We waited until she was 3 weeks and she fought the bottle like crazy. It was so hard going back to work knowing she wasn’t happy with bottles (we tried about 10 different bottles before finding one she liked. Before that, she was only taking roughly 3 ounces a day at daycare - it broke my heart!)

Answer

We are 7months in and she has never had a bottle... She won't take one, I've tried a few different ones and she isn't interested but there is actually no need for her to have one, other than the fact that I haven't left her for more than an hour in 7 months 😂

Answer

All my kids had bottles however my last two came home on bottle and then absolutely refused the bottle. My youngest won’t take a bottle at all and only wants breast! 
So it’s definitely up to the baby

Answer

It can happen but doesnt happen to all babies! My baby had her first bottle at 8 weeks and was fine, one of my friends baby is a year now and still wont have a bottle at all!

Answer

Every baby is different. My lo is 4 months old and he’s breastfed, and I give expressed milk in a bottle and I give formula. Since the day we came home from the hospital. This is what works for us 😊

Answer

Each baby is different just like adults each baby has their own preference

Answer

My son has been EBF for 11 months now . We first gave him a bottle at 5 days old and he never had any issue with nipple confusion or anything . Whatever you feel you should do
