DD wont take bottle from nanny

september1209bride

I have back at work for 12 weeks, but my DH was at home and DD took bottles from him, as well as my mom and MIL fine when they occasionally babysat. Now DD is in a nannyshare, and the nanny is fantastic, but she keeps refusing the bottle from her. She will eventually take it but today she went 5 hours between feedings and then is only taking 3 oz of breastmilk. 

 

Anyone else have any experience with this? I will probably call my pedi tomorrow about this, but any previous experience or suggestions would be helpful. 

Thanks!

She's probably just adjusting to the new person feeding her.  I'd say give it some time.

This was the only bottle I could get DS to take from DCP. Now it is no problem, but it was rough the first couple days.

Yes my ds went thru this went I returned back to work. It took him about 1week to adjust. But my LO is a hungry baby so I knew he wouldn't strike for long. GL!

I had this same issue when I went back to work with my son and his Nanny. I would suggest to just relax and give it some time.  It will take time for them to bond and unless your baby is losing weight then it should be ok. It took my son a few days to get into a pattern with her.
