Confused between eating purees / drinking milk ?

My son started very basic like banana puree / cerelac about 10 days back.. But since then, he has completely forgotten how to drink from bottle. He starts biting the nipple ( as if wanting to eat it ) rather than sucking it :( We have tried different nipples too, but he does the same with all of them..We then gave milk from a bowl with spoon but he was like " dad, come on ! I was not born yesterday..This is wayy too slow ! "

Any suggestions on how to get him on bottles ?

( I breastfeed him, he / i love it but we need to bottle train him for emergencies / giving him juices soon ) 

 

Thanks

Re: Confused between eating purees / drinking milk ?

  • Try a sippy cup? I bought a TT trainer sippy cup thats meant for 4 months and up and its got a good flow. Its a harder "nipple" but it has a good flow and will only flow if he's sucking on it. Maybe you could look into something like that that would bridge the gap from nipple to spoon? 

    Im not even going to touch the whole "giving him juices soon" thing... O.O

     pretty sure you're judging it, if I had to guess.....

    ditto the sippy cup, they also have them with a straw rather than the standard sippy cup top
