Advice needed!!!!!
Luke is 18 weeks and exclusively breast fed, however I need him to take a bottle over the next few months as I have a few weddings to go to (no children) and I am going to have a stay in hospital shortly. The health visitor said to start him on a bottle or even a tippee cup with milk in it.

We have been trying to give him a bottle but he will not take it at all he just gets upset and all worked up with both - I have tried a 2 different bottles and the tippee cup and we get the same reaction with all of them - What shall I do??????
 
I have had to express for ds2 and have been using the medela bottle with calma teat. The teat is very like a breast and releases milk in a similar way. Its actually helped with my LOs latch too
