Help.....refusing bottle.

My almost 5 week old has been refusing the bottle the last two days. He's EBF but we started giving him a bottle a day of my pumped milk. He's been taking a bottle from my husband, my mom, and me with no problem until Tuesday. We introduced a bottle at two weeks.

 We just moved this weekend so maybe it's due to all the new stuff and stress? We have a wedding to go to Sat so we are hoping to get this fixed ASAP. We want to leave LO with my mom for the afternoon and early evening. 

Any tips? Or will this hopefully pass? TIA!

  • The only tip I have is that I've heard that the Playtex nurser bottles with the brown, latex nipple can possibly help with bottle refusal. Also, our might try stepping out of the room when they offer the bottle.
