when you bottle feed, are you using EBM or FM?

Are you mixing bottle feed with latching on?

does she drink more with any special people feeding?

At that age, I feed my boy on demand.. Sometimes not even 3 hourly. And if she refuses to drink probably bcoz she's full. Babies tummies are small. I only change to teat no 2 closer to 3 mths coz I don't want my boy to get choked.

My mom is helping me bottle feed her with EBM. I'm currently still fully latch on. I never mix bottle feed with latch on. My mik let down is quite fast..

I bottle feed my boy once a day during maternity leave. At most 2. So far I have no problems.. You may want to try other brands coz my boy rejected pigeon but accepted avent. Actually if ur babe is drinking ard 30ml or more it means she's accepting the bottle unless u had to struggle right from the beginning of the feed.. NB sleeping while bottle feed is normal.
