    Formula or breast milk should be the MAIN source of nutrition for infants under 1 year of age. Food before this time is for fun. Maybe lo is teething and having pain with the bottle? You said weaned, is formula new to the baby after breast milk? BM is very sweet. You can try a faster flow nipple as well or a different formula. Make sure you are offering the bottle then food as to make sure lo gets their nutrition from the formula first. Cows milk should not be introduced until after the age of one and after cleared by a pediatrician. We are not doing cows milk at all as there are other alternatives. Good luck and I hope little one starts taking the bottle easier for you!
