Introducing a bottle

Has anyone got any advice regarding introducing a bottle? We have been trying for a week and so far he won’t accept the bottle. First few days he got really upset but how he’s happy to chomp on it for about 10 seconds. But he won’t suck, he also doesn’t have a dummy he only feeds from me. I had arranged a KIT day at work next month which is why we are trying, if he completely refuses I will just cancel the day I just wondered if anyone had advice from their own experience? TIA

Try a different bottle brand? Trial and error unfortunately 😅

My son did the same thing I had to try three different bottles the one that worked for him was Herobility Double Anti-Colic Baby bottle.

My daughter was the same and we tried the Pigeon bottles and she takes those no problem. I try to give a bottle a day but sometimes that just doesn’t happen and she’ll still take the bottle after a few days of no bottle. I tried 3 other bottles before the Pigeon.

Are you bottle feeding or someone else? Some babies do better when someone else does it. They'd rather have boob from you

@Amanda my husband was feeding him, but as he isn’t taking I’m doing it during the day to try help him get used to the bottle

@Lucy i don’t want to jump on changing bottles without giving him a chance, but if still no joy I will try another

@Bethany If you sign up to emma’s diary and boots parenting club you should get a free Mam bottle with emma’s diary and a free tommee tippee bottle with boots parenting club which is good instead of buying. If those don’t work definitely try Lansinoh!

@Lucy oh amazing thanks!
