[quote=Anonymous]DC moms, I need your advice! I have been exclusively breastfeeding my baby since she was 1 month old, when she started refusing to take a bottle (whether it had expressed milk or formula). Now, at six months, I am very ready for this exclusivity to end! Plus, my daughter will start child-care in a group situation in about a month. I have had my husband attempt to give her a bottle, and the most we have succeeded in getting inside of her is about 1 1/2 oz. of juice when she was constipated. My husband is simply not home for enough hours in the day to continue to offer her a bottle everyday.

Can I hire a baby nurse to do bottle bootcamp with my baby for a few days in a row? I would like to continue to nurse in the morning and at night, and I'm willing to pump once during the day if necessary. Has anyone had any success with hiring a baby nurse to train a baby to take a bottle? Having my baby willing to take a bottle seems to be necessary for my overall health right now. [/quote]
