Breastfed babies and bottles
Hiya my little girl used to take a bottle of formula every so often from a tommee tippee natural start bottle, the rest of the time she is breast fed. However it seems now she won’t take a bottle, does anyone have any recommendations on different brands to try?

My girl went through bottle refusal at 4 months. She's almost 7 months and still won't take any bottle 😭
Bottle refusal from day one here. Now 7 months, still won’t drink from any bottles but will gulp down water/milk from a tum tum cup!
This is a long shot but your profile says baby is over 3 months, have you tried a size 2 teat? Might be the flow possibly, or trying a different temperature? My boy started refusing bottles because it was too cold for his liking - I had to warm it up more x

@Sophie You're right, warming it could work, but upping teat size for a breadfed baby can then cause a bottle preference where they refuse the breast
My breastfed baby would only drink from lansinoh bottles! We tried all the brands!

Lansinoh teats are closest match to the nipple so may be worth trying those. I know they fit on the MAM bottles but not sure what others! X
