[quote=Anonymous] Baby is 2 months old and I go back to work in 2 weeks. We waited until she was 4 weeks before introducing bottle to avoid nipple confusion but now she absolutely refuses bottle. The first 2 weeks of trying w/ bottle we weren't too concerned and kind of took it slow but now as we get closer to my going back to work we've started trying different strategies and nothing works. We have tried me feeding with bottle, DH with bottle, my parents, inlaws, combos of me in the house, in the house but different room, and out of the house completely. We've tried different bottles (medela, dr. brown, and avent). We've tried when she's not too hungry, when she's tired and hoped for a dream feed, when she's really hungry. Nothing is working. She "chews" the bottle, pushes it out with her tongue, cries and screams and pushes bottle away. We'll look at bottle and she'll hardly have eaten anything. Please help me. [/quote]
