Im back, & need help

edited January 2013 in Ages & Stages
My newborn is 3 months old. In the beginning I was breastfeeding and formula feeding. But then after about a week after bringing him home, I 100% breasted. Now it's time to go back to work and he won't take a bottle with formula and he cries when I'M not around, does anybody have any suggestions on how to get him back on bottle?

  • All you can do is just keep trying but from my experience I know that most breastfed babies wont take a bottle from their mother (babies usual food source) so maybe try having someone else keep trying the bottles with him , why not try to feed him breast milk in the bottle, formula tastes completely different than b-milk and maybe both changes at the same time are too much for him (bottle + formula)... and pumping during a workday may seem overwhelming but after about a week u really get the hang of it..I had to go back to my full time day job and a night time bartending job so I was a pumping machine! Haha
