Bottle refusal

My baby is turning 5mo soon and she still refuses bottle feed. We changed the bottle 3x already and started trying to bottle feed her since birth. I had to take unpaid leave because of this. Help!

Hi mama, you're definitely not alone—many breastfed babies refuse bottles, even after trying different brands. ❤️ Some things that have helped other parents are having someone other than mum offer the bottle, trying when baby is calm (not overly hungry), and experimenting with different milk temperatures. Since your little one is almost 5 months, you could also speak to your pediatrician about alternative feeding methods if the bottle refusal continues. Hang in there, mama—it can be really stressful, but many babies eventually adapt. 😊🌷
