So after much heartache related to breastfeeding, at 7 weeks, LO has been on a roll and has been eating from the boob pretty well.

Now as of the past few days, she's decided to go on a bottle strike! We've been feeding her with a bottle from the beginning to supplement, and never had any problems.

Now it's hysterics and screaming when dad tries to feed her. He usu. takes 2 shifts to give me a break, plus her grandparents sometimes feed her as well.

I saw a post from Mrs. Bee with some useful tips. These are the things we're going to try:
- try formula
- try the milk hot
- try freshly expressed milk
- try lots of difft bottles/nipple types & flows
- have someone other than mom/dad feed LO
- feed LO outside to distract her

We've been trying Dr Brown's bottles, Medela, Playtex Vent Aire, plus a sample Similac bottle we got. We're mixing up

DH had a little luck finally this AM by putting his pinky in her mouth to let her suck, then doing a switcheroo with the bottle, after an hour-long struggle. It's his first day back at work, and it was sad that he had to deal with that before he went in.

I'm about to order $60 worth of bottles/nipples from Amazon. Sigh...
