I use the tommee tippee close to nature bottles, which look like boobs and work nearly the same way but every baby is different. I started holding her very close and snuggled in then sneeked the teat in her mouth instead of my breast although she decided a little while later she didnt want to be held and would only drink it laying in her cot (I express a feed and give it to her every night just to get her used to the bottle if im not there). It took a little while but now she will also let my husband feed her. Recently i started giving her one formula feed a day and she took it fine.

I want to start introducing a bottle into our feeding schedule but my son is reluctant to suck anything other than my breast, any ideas on how to get him to take a bottle so I can have a break and maybe an evening out with my husband
