Need to introduce bottles to my 5 month old baby. Pls guide what type of bottles should I use since I am breastfeeding him also. Suggest brands, slow flow nipple medium flow nipple? How many should I buy initially as thr is a possibility he might not like drinking milk from bottle.
Currently, I am feeding him using spoon but since It is difficult to make him feed while traveling and also, now he gets easily distracted and lot of spilling happens while feeding him so I don’t exactly now how much he is drinking.

<span style="color:#3B5998;"><b> @616da477791e5a0013a0a33a </b></span> you can make him sit by support & then give him milk. Try to make him sit few mins 3-4 times a day.

<span style="color:#3B5998;"><b> @616da477791e5a0013a0a33a </b></span> dear it's absolutely ok, babies will spill & make a mess and this will continue once they will start eating solids, so it's better not to worry about it. I would suggest start <u>using</u> sippy cup, there will be no spillage. Also, in just 1 month you will be introducing solids so you are in a great position to avoid bottles. Trust me it may look a lot of work right now but without bottles it is still nothing.

@6372d8dd17d2c800158d9008 I avoided giving bottles for 5 months now. But he is more active and easily gets distracted so it is becoming very difficult to feed him with spoon. After every meal i hv to change his dress bcoz of spilling. He wasts to hold the spoon, put hands in mouth when spoon is thr and many more naughty stuff. I hv to travel between haridwar n delhi atleast once in a month so it becomes very difficult.
Also his appetite has reduced and bcoz of spilling i never get to know how much “ml” he his having
