Parenting after a Loss

**KathyMarie**

I saw your post about your DS refusing bottles. I went through this for a long time and after many bottle and nipple changes, we finally found one he likes: nuk orthodontic nipple. I kept my born free bottle and put a nuk nipple on and after 2 tries, he took the bottle. This was the only thing that worked for my coworkers daughter, so I thought I pass this info along. GL and hugs.

Re: **KathyMarie**

  • Thank you, but, alas, we have tried that one.

    We've tried the following:

    --Nuk

    --Dr. Brown

    --Tommy Tipee (the closest to success)

    He won't give in. I sent yogurt with him today, so at least he'd get nutrition. I feel so helpless. He refused most of the yogurt too :(

  • Hugs, I know I was very stressed out about this. Consistency of bottle feeding also helps. Hopefully he will take a bottle soon so you can have peace of mind. How long has he been daycare?

  • Thanks.

    He started on 1/31. 

    Tomorrow, I'm going to try sending him with his Tommy Tippee sippy cup with a Tommy Tipee bottle nipple on it (it fits). He might like to hold the cup's handles while he drinks, to have control.

  • GL, I hope the sippy cup is a success. GL tomorrow.
