EBF not taking bottle
Hey yall! I had my little girl about a week ago and since the hospital she has been exclusively breast fed. In the beginning my plan was to breast feed as well as pump so she can take a bottle. Thankfully I have had no issues with production so this wouldn’t be an issue, other than the fact that my girl WILL NOT under any circumstances take a bottle. Every time it comes near her or touches her lips she gets fussy and cries. Her dad has tried as well as me. We have tried feeding her in a position similar to what I BF at. Tried a few different bottles. Even experimented using formula once. Nothing seems to work. Any advice from anyone who’s been in the same situation? Thank you🥲
I’ve heard that putting her on the breast for a minute or so, then swapping out for the bottle sometimes helps. That way, they’re not fussy because they’re super hungry anymore. My son is EBF with a bottle here and there. He likes Evenflo and Lansinoh bottles.
