How to introduce a bottle
Baby is 5 weeks old and although I don’t need to be away from them right now, there’s a few events in the summer (weddings etc) when I know baby will need to take a bottle and I feel the pressure to introduce to one sooner than later as I’ve heard it’ll be more difficult after 6 weeks.
What are people’s best tips and advice for introducing an EBF baby to a bottle? Mainly wondering how often to offer one if he does take it, some of my friends do daily but I haven’t planned on expressing that much.
Also with expressing, how often to do that because bay only takes from one side per feed so if I was to pump once daily do I just do from one breast each day and alternate or do both at same time or both every day but at alternate feeds?
Sorry lots of questions, it’s all new territory for me!
