Bottle refusal
Anyone’s baby refusing to take a bottle ?
My almost6 month old baby has been exclusively breastfeed, but lately she seems to be impatient for my let down and she won’t take a bottle.
Please share your experiences with me, any suggestions would be extremely helpful as im going through a rough time.

6 month is when they start to become more easily distracted. Nursing in a quiet calm place with limited interruptions can help. Baby might be distracted more than impatient. It gets better power through.

No advice just here to say same boat!! My baby quit taking a bottle around 2.5 months but now with the distracted nursing, gas, the waiting for letdown, feeds can be a little fussy. Mine does better lying down to nurse (and I feel like letdown is faster). Also would tolerate playing with a bottle when not that hungry to familiarize with it! Then gradually spend more time with the bottle til you can get a feed in
