[quote=Anonymous]Try different positions for feeding her too. A lactation consultant showed me that she could dance my 3 month old DD around the room in an awkward upright snuggled position with her head tilted back. There was an element of distraction and also maybe she liked the milk dripping down her throat. My husband saw the LC do this and was able to mimic the crazy dance. Eventually, she would take the bottle from everyone but me. Now, she takes a bottle from me too... although she is still a bit nuts about breast feeding at 8 months. My DD did the best with Avent natural and classic nipples, although eventually the Medelas were fine. This will work out as long as someone continues to try. Once she learns to take a bottle, don't let her go a whole day without practicing her bottle skills. It feels pretty stupid when the baby rejects the bottle all over again![/quote]
