Just an update on our progress which may be of help to others trying to wean a bf baby. After slow progress taking formula from the free flow cup, we tried a straw cup two weeks ago and we have not looked back! We have called it her magic cup because as soon as we swapped to this cup she took the formula with no problems at all! I guess it was just about finding the right cup.

Well done Gilly.
I am back to breastfeeding again as my little girl never  took much from the bottle.she even went 10.5 hours without milk only because I wouldn't feed her and she refused to take the bottle. It has been very stressful four weeks of trying to get her to take formula.  I felt she was getting dehydrated ( lips looked dry) , she had only two wet nappies a day the second being not very wet. So I'm back to bf. I would really like to stop breastfeeding  soon. I might try the cup or even the straw . Here's hoping something will click !!
