hi everyone. i know alot of threads are out there about switching from bf to ff but i'm struggling. my little boy is most definately a boobie baby and loves his breast feeds! he was 8:12 at birth and is now around 16:3. he gains on average an oz a day!
i need to be ff by the time i go back to work on the 22 feb! i am going back full time and LO is in nursery. at the moment i am trying to get him to take a bottle. i have tried TT closer to nature and he hates them. i have also tried MaM and while he will take this one in his mouth he isn't impressed! i have just bought a NUK bottle to try 2mrw. i have also tried SMA but he hated it (i hated the taste too!!) so have got aptamil to try 2mrw. (i have tried ebm but he wont take this from a bottle and i am too tired to keep expressing for it to go to waste!)
any tips on what bottle was the best for anyone else who has switched after 3 months of exc bf???
i am just dropping one feed at a time at the moment but dont want him to go hungry.
any help/advice appreciated
