i need some help. kayleigh refuses to take a bottle! i can't get her to take one no matter what, even if it's my milk or formula! i need her to be able to take a bottle. it would be nice so if we go out to dinner or at the store i can just give her a bottle, but nope not happening. so if anyone has advice i would love to hear it!! thanks so

a couple things-

how long are you waiting to feed her before giving up trying on the bottle?

how much does she weigh?

if she's 10 lbs or over, she can sleep through the night (6-8 hours). so you can wait that long to feed her.

i think it's one of those things, they will stay with what they're comfortable with until they're gently forced to change. like sleeping through the night and.... ugh... potty training. *shudders*

good luck!

my family says it takes her a while to take the bottle and it doensn't last long. and when i try to do it she just screams, and steve tried to other night when was out with my sister, and he tried for like 30 mins.

last month she weighed 10.5 lbs. she gets weighed again on friday. i'm going to talk to the doctor too. it's just hard cause i'm the only one who can feed her and she always wants to be fed, so it sucks for me and everyone else who wants to help.
