She will take juice (or water with a splash of juice) from a bottle, but hasn't taken milk since 6 weeks old (she throws a fit!!). I'd like to start trying more and more to hopefully allow us to get a date night in!</p> <p>My issue is, when do I pump? After she eats - when I'm empty? before she eats, then give her the bottle if she's hungry? ahh!</p> <p>ETA - LO is 7.5 months. </p>
