🍼 BABY REFUSING BOTTLE 🍼



We all know that breastfeeding is the safest & easiest way of giving the most healthy nutrition to our babies. However there are scenarios when we as parents have to move to the bottle feeding & we are very much concerned about our babies not taking bottle or babies who have been taking bottle but now started rejecting it. I'm gonna share the 10 reasons I feel that why babies reject bottle & what is that we can do about it.
🍼 Introduce bottle early.

Introducing bottle within the first 2months can help baby adjust with it early.
🍼 Do not give up.

Have patience, it may take the baby sometime to get used to it.
🍼 Feed in a calm environment.

Babies can get distracted easily, you should try to feed in a calm & quite place.
🍼 Use the right bottle.

Using a natural shape feeding bottle may help in making the transition easy.
🍼 Use the right nipple size.

Nipple size should be changed as per the babies age, ensure correct size.
🍼 Choose the right milk.

Breastmilk can be given through bottle & formula should be changed if required.
🍼 Milk temperature.

Breastmilk is at body temperature, try & give your baby milk at the same temperature.
🍼 Try night feeds.

Feeding at nights have high success rate, try not to disturb the environment during feed.
🍼 Ask someone else to feed.

Babies demand breastfeed when they smell their mothers presence.
🍼 Check for illness.

Babies can reject bottles of they are unwell, especially during cold, congestion or if the baby is teething. #lifeasmamma #bbccreatorsclub #bbcreatorsclub #newborns #newmommies #newbaby #newmommylife #helpfultips #babychakraapp #babytips @babychakra Khushboo Chouhan
