Won't take bottle

Kriskhan

Any one else having this problem? I am EBF'ing and have to got back to work next week. I am only working 2 days a week but am having grandmothers babysit. So we just figured out that the baby won't take the bottle anymore. We would feed her from the bottle when we went out because I was scared to NIP. The bottles are breastmilk bottles... Well last night was a total fail. She refused the bottle and I had to NIP...Anyway I also realized that when she spent the morning with grandma last week, grandma said she hardly ate anything from the bottle. Am I screwed? Anyone else had this problem? Any tips? I'm really scared to leave a screaming baby with grandma.

I tried almost every bottle out there last week after DS refused drop-ins (which my first had no problem with).  We finally had success with just changing the nipple to the brown latex ones.  We also figured out he is very picky about the temp.&
