Bottle help?!

in Babies: 9 - 12 Months

My DS is 11 months and he has only taken a bottle maybe 2-3 times (and never took the whole thing).  He continues to wake and cry often in the night.  He has weaned himself during the day (most like because I am now preggers again), but is up to nurse once in the night.  I'd like to give him a bottle before bed, but he refuses.  Any help? 

My first took a bottle fine and I never believed my Mommy friends that said their baby (boys!) wouldn't take a bottle.  Guess I am getting some karma there!  :)

    Yes, he does really well with a sippy.  But, would he settle in to drink a sippy before bed in the rocking chair??  Maybe that will be our next thing to try.

    My LO refused a bottle from the start, so we introduced a sippy around 5 months.  We have used it to give expressed BM on the few occasions where I had to be away from her for longer than 4-5 hours.  She refused it at first, and it has taken multiple tries to get to take enough to constitute an actual feeding, but we are slowly getting there.  I would try the sippy cup a try if you haven't already. GL!
