Get someone else to give your little one the bottle and go out for a walk while he is being fed. He can smell you when you try to do it and knows there is other option.

I got my husband to feed him It took a while my little one would make a right fuss and cry when offered the bottle But don’t force it. Just keep trying little and often kinda thing Have you tried different bottles or even different teats? Maybe it’s too fast flowing for him Maybe try warming your milk up alittle. My boy would be so fussy if it’s cold which makes sense as it’s not cold when it comes out the boob so just pop the bottle in some warm water for a little bit and see if that helps Different positions also helped my baby. Sometimes I would have to stand up with him on my waist feeding him like that. Now he just sits up on the bed and drinks it Not sure if any of that will help just from personal experience

Hi- I’ve tried my little one with various bottles that try and mimic the nipple. So far he’s responded well to the Nanobaby bottle, the flow is super slow. I found the MAM & Tommee Tippee bottles he would choke a lot.
