Hello, my daughter is 3.5 months old and still refuses a bottle of expressed milk. She has never taken a full feed from a bottle. She sometimes flat out refuses, and sometimes chews the bottle instead of sucking. We have tried me being out the house, tried different bottles etc. She has slight tongue tie / high pall...

Supplementing with formula

I’ve exclusively breastfed for first 5 months of my sons life. However we’d now like to try supplementing this with formula to up his weight gain a little.

Milk

My little one is obsessed in milk & I’m really struggling to wean her off, she won’t go to sleep without a bottle, so she isn’t eating much at all. Probably a couple of spoonfuls of breakfast/ lunch/ tea and has crisps and fruit but other than that eats nothing. I would say she’s consuming 500 calories food alone & ...

I feel there might ...

Anyone had this issue and cracked it? My little guy is having 3 decent meals a day now and was having a bottle between meals but is now refusing them or only drinks a few oz of each.
