Have you tried Tommee Tippee bottles?

My LG only drinks from pigeon cheap teats, because they are the only ones she can suck flat which is what she wants to do :)

Good luck

I tried giving her the bottle at different time of day.

I have not tried breastfeeding a little first then giving the bottle, will try that this weekend. My angel also sucks her fingers and the blankets OH and sucks me to but won't take the dummy

Oh no Giggles. Hmmm now I don't know. When do you give her a bottle? Did you try breastfeed little bit and then offering the bottle? Or let someone else try to give her the bottle?

My kids never had dummies either. We tried to give Megan one as she was sucking her fingers but she didn't want a dummy.

Also try to put some of the milk on the teat before giving it to her. Shame hope you come right.

Just keep trying. Megan also didn't want to take a bottle. It took me about 3 days to get her to take a bottle. And then once she got used to the bottle, she didn't want to breastfeed anymore!

My girl is 11 weeks today, and I have been breastfeeding only.

I have tried to express and give her the NUK & Pigeon bottles but she just pushes it out with her tongue.

I am stressing because I will be going back to work soon and my baby doesn't want to take the bottle. I have also tried dipping the teat in gripe water, it doesn't work.

What else can I try???

Please help
