Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Refusing bottle

My LO for the past two weeks has been refusing her bottle. She has always taken it really well, we use Tommee Tippee. She will cry when we try to feed her but if we give her a pacifier she is fine. She only takes mam pacifiers so I am considering buying the mam bottle (it has a very different nipple than most bottles, but it is identical to her pacifiers). Has anyone ever had this issue? I'm desperate to make feeding time enjoyable again for all of us. Anyone have any luck with mam bottles?

Re: Refusing bottle

  • Have you tried seeing if your milk tastes ok? I have excess lipase in my milk and after about 12 hours it starts to taste soapy. My DD wouldn't take a bottle until I started scalding it.
  • I actually finally after a lot of trial and error found the problem. She needed to go up to the next nipple size for medium flow. She is back to taking her bottles again! Thank you for your advice.
