You still have two more months to go why start so early. Also baby will take other items as time progresses. Many times if the mother is feeding the baby reject because with you they are comfortable with breast feeding. In your absence they would be more open to accepting other foods. If baby is six months at the time of your joining you can also try some solids.

why you're throwing away your hardwork <span style="color:#3B5998;"><b> @63724421e0852e00159b136a </b></span><span style="color:#3B5998;"><b></b></span>....you can express your milk and give from Madela calma nipple... it's same like mother's breast and baby will not get confused with nipples... during the day 3-4 feeds can be given with Madela calma and at night you can direct feed... continue till six months... it's possible with help... good <u>luck</u>

Aarti baby should exclusively breast fed till six month if age, giving formula soon will decrease your breast stimulation n will result in decrease in milk supply , please continue only bm often as baby us too small ,and nothing is nutritous as mothers milk it gives life time immunity to kids at all levels.secondly when u join manage three months with expressed milk .invest in good quality electric pump and keep it when u will express,store for baby n your care taker can give in your absence . now try to take good diet ,good care of yourself so that you have sufficient milk and please feed often without formula.

Try to keep him hungry for long .. So that he accepts the bottle .. Or try taking for a car ride and then feed through bottle
