Hi everyone,

My DS2 is 3 months old and has been breastfed exclusively since birth. I want him to be familiar with drinking EBM from a bottle so that I can have a bit of freedom.

I have tried giving him a bottle of EBM and he screws up his face and cries and doesn't drink it. I have tried doing this when he is hungry and also after a small feed but he still won't take it. I have only consistently been trying for the last couple of days and have only done it before the late afternoon/dinner feed.

He doesn't have a dummy.

I am trying Tommee Tippee bottles with number 1 teats and/or number 2 teats - doesn't seem to make a difference. My DS1 liked the bottles but he was familiar with them (EBM) from an earlier age.

I would appreciate any advice you may have!
