I’m done breastfeeding. My baby is 7 months old and I honestly cannot do it any longer. I’ve fought hard to breast feed him but the physical and mental strain it’s putting on me now is unbearable and I just can’t do it any more, sitting here at 2am in tears writing this
He hates bottles and we’re trying milk in a cup at meal times but he’s just not fussed.
Any advice on how to get him to talk a bottle?

I know this is costly, but you'll have to try different bottle types and brands. Theres so many varieties now, and i only tried a few and ultimately went for a soft sippy style cup that didnt encourage teeth shifting.
My son never goes for milk unless right from the tap, except for in the beginning when i DID get him on bottles and he refused breast. So my best advice is to be consistent and unwavering. He will take it eventually, but trying different types will help it be less of a forceful torture
