is it possible to go from bottle feeding BACKKK to breast feeding ?

Question

I am an exclusively pumping mom. I didn't start off that way, I would breast feed my son exclusively . I started pumping to build up a stash for my son . But one day he just rejected my boob and has ever since . Even though he is still drinking solely breast milk , is their any way or has any mom been able to get baby back on boob?

Answer

You could try nipple shields. Since they are rubber maybe he will feel like they are bottle nipples. And after awhile try to take them off and feed him.

Answer

Google and try the many latch techniques out there. Totally doable if you're willing to take a little time.

Answer

I tried with my first one but was never able to get her back to breast after bottle . But every baby is different so just keep trying with every feeding and it just might work!

Answer

It's possible. My son stopped latching on day 3 and a lactation consultant helped me get the latch back on day 9. She made me pump so that my nipple elongated a little and kept dripping breastmilk from one of my bottles on my breast while my son tried to latch. Took about twenty minutes of trying, but he finally got back on. We've been breastfeeding and pumping/bottle feeding ever since.

Answer

I'd go to your local lactation support groups.

Answer

I could in the beginning like 3 months in, but after that the bottle won every time.

Answer

Yes my son has been doing it since he was born :) i just introduced it right away

Answer

I would assume so. My son goes back and forth all the time and doesn't seem to really care.
