Well, this weekend we are trying your method of getting bub to take the bottle. Fingers crossed. However, I have had some wins recently, most importantly she has stopped having lots of feeds at night and now can go longer without waking up. This has happened since I have started sleeping her on her tummy at night. Contrary to all the advice I have been given my precious sleeps so much better on her tummy, I imagine because the eases the reflux pain. So now she only wakes up once or so. I've also weaned her off the dummy as was constantly running in to replace it when it fell out. So i feel like i'm slowly winning the battle at the moment. She has started to put her hands in her mouth to help her sleep which is great because she doesn't need the dummy to help her sleep -
Thanks for your advice and i'm hoping by the end of the weekend she will be taking a bottle so hubby and I can go on our planned overnight in 2 week's time.
Lil miss is also loving her rice cereal and at nights pumpkin mixed with it - i'm sure this is some of the reason why she isn't spewing as much.
fingers crossed your bub is now enjoying solids too?
