How to get my son to take the bottle?
I'm about to start painting again and my youngest (9 months) will be staying with his grandmother in the mornings while I get to work. He just refuses to take a bottle!
He's more than happy to drink juice, water and tea on his own. He is still breastfed and he falls asleep on the breast. I have pumped, used every brand of formula out there and tried giving it to him every which way, to no avail.
I have no intention to stop breastfeeding, but for the time when I will not be with him I need to find a way to get him to take his milk, even if it is just for his nap time.
Any advice?

skip a bottle. a cup, cup and spoob, bowl, or baby syringe will do the job. Most BF babies hate fake nipples.

It may be a simple matter of taste, when I was a baby I hated formula as well and wouldn't drink it. It was purely a taste thing. My mum used to add some vanilla or banana milkshake powder to it (not a lot) and then I'd drink it.
