Switching to formula

I’ve been ebf for 6 weeks now but I want to switch to formula. How do I get baby to take a bottle from me?

I started the switch around this time slowly. Took us a bit. Finding the right bottle took some time (Dr browns wide neck worked/works best for us). I would pump and put 2oz in a bottle and give that once or twice a day. Than increased it over time... adding half formula/half breast milk bottles.. till she got the hang of it was finally just formula. Took us about 3 weeks in all till we finally had it down. Hope this helps. You got this!

Thank you! I’ll persevere xx
