6 months of breastfeeding- bottle help

in Babies: 6 - 9 Months

After 6 rewarding months of BF my LO, we are gradually transitioning in solids. My issue is actually bottle-feeding. DD has never taken to the bottle. Is it too late at 6 months to get her to take a bottle? Any tricks or tips out there? I have a stash of milk in my freezer, but it seems wasteful to try a bottle again (unsuccessfully) only to pour it down the drain. With some events planned next month it would be nice to get out of the house solo for more than a couple of hours. Thanks in advance

    if you don't want to waste milk, use water in a bottle. Or, does your baby use sippy cups? Put milk in that.

    I'm in the same boat, we tried every type of bottle you can think of through out the last 6 months. I would love to be able to get out of the house baby free for once!

    Qfrump good to know, I'll have to pick up a cup to try or try a regular straw in the meantime.
