Hi
Our 24 week old daughter has been bottle fed since 6 weeks old. We are on a 4 hour EASY.
She always took a bottle from me or her Dad but as is normal I definitely did the majority of the feeds as I am on mat leave and I think we got into a habit of me doing the bedtime bottle unless I was out.
She takes around 7-8 oz and settles into her cot awake and goes to sleep with no fuss normally.
Two weeks ago Daddy started the bedtime feed, she took 3 Oz then glanced up at him and went hysterical.
I was do shocked that I went upstairs and when she was passed to me she stopped crying and took the rest of her bottle. For the last two weeks we have tried every night for Daddy to do the bedtime feed and she just cries.
He gives her bottles in the day fine.
Do we persevere? Do we leave for a while and try again?. Any advice? If its a phase and she will grow out of it herself that is fine but when I go back to work my husband is going to have to do bed time as I travel.
Thanks for any help. None of my bottle feeding friends have experienced this
