Almost 4mo not taking bottle :/

We’ve been strictly breastfeeding for the last 2 mo, and before that we tried hard to get baby girl to take a bottle. She was never a big fan and I hated pumping. But now I’m back to work and although I work from home I’ve been trying to get nanny to give her bottle but we’re striking out. Painful to see pumped milk go to waste. But also physically painful to hear baby girl cry bc she wants to eat but doesn’t want bottle. She hates pacifiers too and just wants boob. What can I do? Persist?

What bottled have you tried? It could be the teat 🤔

You started too late. You should have given a bottle from day 1, when baby’s sucking reflux is strong.

@Incognito oh thanks for this very useful advice

@Elle (i can't see waves) medela slow flow and lansinoh slow flow nipple :/

Just offer a straw cup instead. :) I did this from 6mths for water and bm when it was required.
