    Maybe he doesn't need the neosure anymore?  Ask his pedi!

  • Maybe switch the bottle/nipple? If he prefers your nipple, you should look into bottles/nipples that replicate it like Tommee Tippee.

  • Ditto checking with your pedi. I was shocked when they told us to stop fortifying (we were at 24 cal) around 3 months, but Andrew still gained!
  • Could you order one package online and see if your LO likes them? If so, you could order more? 

     

    Talk to your pedi first like PPs suggested... but if you still need to use the bottles, I would consider ordering them.
