EAT => Bottle Feeding => Topic started by: Bravo on September 09, 2010, 17:58:08 pm

Hello, I am new to this site and don't know if I'm doing this properly. My baby is 7.5 months old and I ran out of BM almost a Month ago now (he's 24 pounds and eats ALOT!) I have always done dream feeds with him, but usually I'm breast feeding so I take him out of his crib and feed him. Now that he's on a bottle, I'm wondering if it's Ok if I prop the bottle up in his crib once and a while and let him eat. It seems like when I hold him he falls asleep, but propping it in his crib he downs it pretty quick. Can anyone help me on this?
Thanks!

I would say no as it is a chocking hazard to prop a bottle, and also it is a choking hazard to feed your LO with them lying completely flat in a crib. You really need to lift them.
As your LO is 7.5mths I would say bear with it as you will be weaning the DF soon anyway.
But personally I wouldn't do that.
