I have some similac in my pantry, I'll try that and some BM and I will warm it up instead of room temp! I hope it helps. I need a date night! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/7-months-bottle-strike#post-1438891 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 20:49:40 +0000 swedishfish 1438891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rahlyrah: @.twist.: R didn't care for Enfamil either. I agree with mixing some breast milk in...we did that for a few days and slowly changed the ratios. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/7-months-bottle-strike#post-1438887 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 20:48:33 +0000 lawbee11 1438887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: You know M was on a bottle strike forever. My DH thinks the temp had something to do with it...she won't take it unless it's pretty warm (at least body temp). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/7-months-bottle-strike#post-1438873 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 20:45:40 +0000 Ra 1438873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: Brady hated enfamil. He likes the similac sensitive though. Also, maybe try mixing it with some breast milk at first? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/7-months-bottle-strike#post-1438845 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 20:41:13 +0000 .twist. 1438845@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swedishfish: We used to use enfamil - Gentlease, so that's what I had and have been trying with. Should I switch it up? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/7-months-bottle-strike#post-1438841 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 20:39:10 +0000 swedishfish 1438841@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just keep trying...what kind of formula are you trying to give him? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/7-months-bottle-strike#post-1438822 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 20:33:59 +0000 .twist. 1438822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>L is 7 months old and exclusively BF. He currently sleeps from 7:00p - 4:30a/feed/4:30a - 7:00a.</p> <p>He has his last feeding of the day at 6:20pm ish. </p> <p>I would like to be able to give him a bottle for his 6:20p feeding. So that I can have a little more freedom in the evenings if DH and I decide to go on a date or if I just want DH to do evening feed. </p> <p>However, my kid refuuuuuses to take a bottle. I have been trying with formula, which he had much earlier in his life, and he acts like it's POISON. </p> <p>Formula would be ideal, and I don't reaaally want to pump, but I guess if I have to I have to.... </p> <p>Can anyone give me tips on a. getting my kid to take a bottle and b. drinking formula?! </p> <p>Thanks for any advice/help. </p>
