Hi there,
I am trying to implement the BW method for introducing a 5 month old BF baby to taking ebm from a bottle. The BW 'solve all your problems' book suggests trying a bottle every hour and not feeding by the breast.. how long do i go on for? I started this morning with the 11oclock feed, so so far my DS has missed two feeds, constantly refusing the bottle of (freshly) pumped bm more and more vehemently each time! Lots of arching of back, turned head, clamped mouth and of course crying. Do I carry on for 24 hours as the book implies, that seems a long time for a baby to go without liquids. ? or should i just feed him his 7pm feed as normal and try another day?
Thanks for all support!
