She won’t eat solids much much due to teething, still I keep trying old food and new food and BLW. I feel so gluity and want to give in but I know I won’t be happy, I keep getting frustrated and angry. I want to stop as I mentally and physically can’t carry on. I need help I don’t know what to do she won’t still take the bottle she’s so stubborn . she’s 9 months What else can I do - please help a mama out x

Show your support

Sorry to hear your having a rough time! Have you tried the NUK perfect match silicone bottles? They are one of the closest shapes to a nipple you can get? Or do you think it’s the taste of the formula?

Message the breastfeeding network on Facebook they have trained volunteers to help ❤️❤️❤️❤️

As she is 9 months, it doesn't have to be a bottle per se. You could try straw ones as well. But definitely reach out to a breastfeeding community

If it’s the formula taste she may be struggling me, you could try pumping and doing half formula half breast milk bottles and then decrease the breastmilk and use more formula over time.

@Maddie I’ve tried that too, every bottle that is supposedly the closest shape to the nipple. @Naomi I tried pumping and giving her breast milk she won’t take it from Bottle or supply cup and tried the mixing it. She just won’t take it. Isn’t eating much either keeps saying no to food ? Yoghurt , banana , anything. Just drinks water from a spoon.

Thank you ladies- I have Tried reaching out to breastfeeding team no response. Still waiting for them to get back x
