Bottle type is another thing. Might take trying a few different ones before the wee one takes to it. Good luck. How are you Mrs? Hope you and the brood are well. x 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am the best I've been in a year. Waiting on the Queen Elizabeth giving me a date for my stem cell transplant, should be a few weeks maximum wait.

My wife goes back to work in 2 weeks time and it’s a slight concern to say the least! please feel free to tell me to f**k off to Mumsnet We wouldn’t do that, once they found out you were from p&b you’d get banned! (Long story!) Have you tried a sippy cup rather than a bottle? Once the Mrs is at work she’s not going to have a choice so you may find it clicks into place, she won’t starve though! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve also tried a few different bottles and teets, it were the Nuk latex ones we found luck with at first but even with the larger ones now she’ll still not take it. 6 hours ago, Rowan said: We wouldn’t do that, once they found out you were from p&b you’d get banned!

She drinks water from the sippy cup but she’s had a teething moment of late so hasn’t wanted water either.

M0rtonfc Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 My wee lassie turned 10 months old today and what a happy wee gorgeous kid she is but we have one very small issue which is a pain in the arse, she loves Boobs as much as her Daddy .

My wife goes back to work in 2 weeks time and it’s a slight concern to say the least! please feel free to tell me to f**k off to Mumsnet My wee boy is 7 weeks old today, he’s still sucking the wife’s milk melons but after 4 weeks we tried a bottle with her milk so he could get used to me doing a bottle and the wee man just got right in amongst it haha, we got lucky I think, absolute milk guzzling machine! She was told before we tried it by friends to make sure we had the right size of teet for the bottle as different sizes can cause issues, I’m guessing yous have already tried that tho! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Got home not long ago and decided to go out with the wee one to find puddles to jump in with her wellies. She absolutely loved it. I'm loving this age and am really going to miss it when a simple thing like jumping in a puddle no longer amuses her for an hour. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She absolutely loved it. I'm loving this age and am really going to miss it when a simple thing like jumping in a puddle no longer amuses her for an hour. It carries on. I remember being about 8 when my parents bought us all (me and my older 2 sisters) waterproof winter gear (we were in Sweden and the winters can be harsher). Of course we went straight out and jumped in puddles. Mum and Dad went ballistic, that could have been the first time I realised that grown ups are morons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got mixed advice, we were told if you start messing around with bottles or dummies they can lose interest in the breast... my wife went back to work full time this week so our wee lassie won’t get her midday feed but to be honest, I think she takes those feeds as comfort more than anything now, she’s good as drinking water from a sippy Cup now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our oldest was pretty much just feeding for comfort most of the time when my wife went back. The evening feed seemed to be the only one that actually mattered. Only a couple of weeks away from weaning the baby, can't say I'm looking foreword to it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
