Hi,
I've been exclusively breastfeeding my son (28 weeks) and am wanting to put him on formula now. I tried him on the bottle tonight and he just point blank refused it and got himself all worked up. After calming him down, my hubby tried but we had the same reaction. Ended up feeding him normally although he didn't take much.
I know that he can take a bottle reasonably happily as I went to work for 4 days and he took bottles no problem from my mum although these were expressed milk.
Any tips on how to make the transition to formula easier? I don't really want to be feeding him for much longer as going back to work in a few weeks properly and I'm not in the least bit interested in expressing at work etc.
Thanks
