At 6 months it’s quite unlikely they’ll accept a bottle if they aren’t used to it as it takes a completely different skill/ motion to drink from a bottle compared to the breast and babies have lost the innate sucking motion they’re born with by this point. Have you tried a sippy/ open cup? You may have more success although my baby is a year on Saturday and has never accepted milk any way but direct from source 🙈
Oh no, i was expressing and bottle feeding when she was a newborn here and there. She will happily take water from the mam bottle but when it comes to milk she sticks her tongue out and will refuse
Have you tried her with an open cup? My daughter likes oat milk but freaks out if it’s in her usual water cup as she’s expecting water😅 sounds like it might be similar if she usually uses a bottle for water? Could also be a temp/taste issue, I have high lipase so my milk goes bad really fast, or maybe she doesn’t like it cold?
@Lauryne she uses a sippy cup for water with no issues, im thinking maybe the teat of the mam bottle she doesn't like. Im trying to find bottles that replicate a nipple so she might take it hopefully
@Isabella thank you will deffo look into these x
Maybe try different teat sizes?
