I am struggling with bf my 4 month old whilst having to look after my toddler. DS2 is feeding every 1.5-2 during the day and is having real difficulty with naps (although on the while bedtime/night time is much better). I want to start giving DS2 a bottle so OH can help and I can spend some time with DS1 as I feel our relationship has been affected.
The problem is DS2 will not accept a dummy and won't really have a bottle either. We are trying different bottles/teats but I am just at a loss as to what to do. How much should I be giving him? should I try a bottle every feed till he gets used to it (maybe finish of with boob afterwards?)
With DS1 I bf until 10 months and he accepted bottle with no issues so I am a bit of a loss.
