    Bottle Refusal

    Hi Guys,

    Looking for a little advice. I currently comp feed my DD due to supply issues, and in the last few days she has been refusing to take the bottle. If I coax her she eventually drinks it and I'm been sure to keep the experience positive but it has been getting worse over the last 24hours.

    I use Pigeon teats and bottles which have not been a problem up until now as they were recommended for the switch between breast and bottle, however I do have tommee tippee closer to nature ones I can try if needed.

    I'm not really sure if it is the formula, which is NAN HA which is what she has been on since birth or the bottle but she seems to dislike both, crying for the breast instead, which I would love to give her but sadly my supply cannot keep up with her needs. We currently BF, and then when she has drained both if still hungry which is almost always we comp feed the extra.

    Thanks for any help, I'm going to speak with my LC on monday to see if they can offer any suggestions.

    Would getting an SNS be worthwhile? Nursing Angel has them for $80
