Really struggling with bottle

So I started working at a daycare, thankfully they had a spot for my daughter and we are in the same building. But they have been trying to feed her with a bottle but she’s not taking it. She only takes .5oz and then they just call me to go up and feed her. I am needing to be absent from work on Monday and Tuesday next week but not sure how my baby girl will survive the day if she’s not taking the bottle. Unfortunately I am not able to take her with me those two days so I’ll have to check her into daycare. Any suggestions tips to help a struggling mamá would be greatly appreciated. I’m literally typing this as I feed her and am crying. 😭

I’ll try that at home. I can only ask so much of the people at daycare. And they are always short staff so it seems like they tend to do things quick

Maybe check the temp as well? Sometimes if the milk is too cold for my LO she won't take it till it warms more.

@Aaliyah I hope so. Thanks for your recommendation. 💜

Wow. She knows what she likes. Hopefully she’ll take to at least one bottle.

@Aaliyah I tried the MAM last night, tommee tipee, Nuk and dr brown, and philips avent. I tried all these mentioned and she fought all of them. She did take the mam for a minute and spat it out afterwards. I did order the one you mentioned but doesn’t arrive until Friday. I also ordered other different ones on Amazon

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. Have you tried different bottles? I heard the evenflo balance bottles work great for breastfed babies because they latch the same. They’re almost always sold out from how popular they are but they’re at target and usually you can find some on Amazon. If you can’t, just get the nipples and pop them on Philips Avent natural bottles. I hope everything works out for you and your little one.
