EBF babies, how are you getting them to take a bottle? Any weird or wonderful ways that worked??
He was taking a bottle from 5-10 weeks but then refused. He’s now 17 weeks.
We’ve tried….
Different teats / flows
Partner feeding with me out of the house
Swapping to bottle mid feed on boob
Offering bottle first thing or after a big nap when most hungry
Freshly pumped milk
Help… I’ll do anything at this point 🙃🤣

It toke me to try 3 different bottles ' she toke to the MaM bottles'also squirtin breastmilk on teat and making sure the teats warm x

What position do you usually nurse in? I used to have my son laying on his side on the nursing pillow. When I started giving him a bottle, I would mimic that

We used an open cup

Just been googling about those! How old was yours when you introduced it?
Has anyone got one of these from a brand they recommend? Not sure if Coco seat is a UK brand or what it's like as a company?
Thanks in advance!

My 12 week old uses Aldi Mamia size 3 nappies during the day with no problems, but at night both Mamia and Pampers Premium Protection size 3 have leaked after a few hours. Has anyone got tips for nighttime leaks or recommendations for other brands or strategies?

Hi all so my nearly 3 week old is wanting to sleep through the night she has had no issues with her weight and is gaining really well. Can I let her sleep through or do I keep waking her? TIA x

My baby is 15 weeks on Saturday. He used to sleep 9ish-6am with only 1 wake for a feed. He’s now ready for bed at 7/7:30 and sleeping until 7am but waking for 3 feeds! He had dropped to 6 5oz bottle but has now added in an extra one at 11pm. I’ve tried him with some 6oz bottles in the day but he struggled with them. What’s going on? Do I need to ride it out or try and up his daytime intake?

I was just curious if anyone has switched formulas. My 12 week old baby has been on aptamil 1 since birth but due to crap mat pay and the prices of formula nowadays I was wondering if anyone can advise if they switched and (or) if they've used aptamil and changed; which brand did they switch to. Thanks mummas
