at 10 months you can easily go to the movies with out missing a feed she is at the age of being able to have perhaps some water or solids to extend out a feed.
OMG ladies thanks for the advice although you guys make it sound soo easy lol..Aanika my 10month old is soo different to my first girl Zaffron.Yes she does drink water and has a lil bit of food but she will still scream for me well not for me for her boob lol..I might just try a cup ive tried about 6 bottles and 5 different milk so ill jus keep trying lol.
I had the same problem, it took 3 months of trying once a day for DS2 to accept a bottle. I now give him one each night for the 7pm feed. He will only drink from the funny shaped teats though - sorry I don't know what they are called but Nuk and a few others make them.
I have also got him drinking out of a cup, I managed this by offering it with water for every meal. That took about 2 months, and even now a lot just goes down the front.
I think with patience, eventually they get the hang of it, he now also drinks water from his sigg bottle.
Good luck. I've always found that DS is fine if I'm not around. Out of sight out of mind iykwim. If I'm not around, he doesn't even think about boob til I'm back, unless its over night.
So maybe if you weren't around she would be ok.
ohh its soo hard but i plan on trying it, once i find a friend to go movies with lol..only been here gold coast Burleigh for over a year and a half and still havnt gotten around let alone finding new friends..good to talk to other mums..
