Switching 7 month old breastfed to bottle
« on: May 25, 2006, 20:15:56 pm »
Hello,
I need someone's opinion on my situation. My son is 7 months old and has been breastfed so far. he is on solids for 3 times a day now. Recently I feel that I dont have enough milk for him. I am trying to give him bottle but he doesnt take it. I have tried lots of nipples and bottles but to no avail :( Should I try giving him bottles at all at this stage or how do I do it. He doesnt take sippy cup at all. He just plays with it. I feeel so frustrated... please advice should I encourage to use bottles or sippy cup :(

Hope to hear back soon with some help.

Thanks
Meenal

I'm sorry I can't be of much help. I did not Breast Feed my LO. But this is an excellent link with about 10 pages of discussion on tips for getting your breast fed LO to take a bottle. It is an excellent thread. Hope it helps you a bit. https://babywhispererforums.com/index.php/topic,9215.0.html
