The only ones that have worked with my bf baby is the lansinoh teats!! I had bought a load of mam bottles while pregnant but thankfully the lansinoh teats fit perfectly on the mam bottles! Worth a try for sure 👌,

My baby boy is the exact same! He’s also 10 weeks now. Last time I gave him a bottle after not having it for a while was last week, he would just chomp on it first and then started drinking but didn’t finish all the milk. Since then I’ve been trying but he wouldn’t take it 😭 Now I regret not giving a bottle every single day, they forget so quick. I would say maybe see if your son takes the bottle from his Dad or anyone else? If he still doesn’t take the bottle then you could use a syringe to give milk?

I’ll try them teats as I’ve got loads of mam bottles xxx

yeah we’ve tried with dad and grandma, we’ve tried when I’m out of the house and I’ve been rang to come back because he’s been screaming, I can’t even have a bath 🙈

Lansinoh x

Yeah as soon as we decide to give it a go it’ll be Lansinoh bottles I think! Any teats which are bulbous are highly unlikely to be taken

I had bottle refusal with my first. I'd try everything in this guide first https://llli.org/breastfeeding-info/bottles/
but if all the usual tips and tricks don't work this is what we used in the end (a bit of a slow process but it worked!) https://www.rachelobrienibclc.com/blog/what-to-do-when-your-breastfed-baby-wont-take-a-bottle-introducing-a-bottle-part-3/
Hope this helps! Xx
