My 3.5m/o LO has been rejecting milk bottles (I have tried a few different types but he only wants direct latch) and doesn't allow anyone to carry him but me. What should I do with the above 2 situations since I am going back to work soon and he will be going to infant care? Should I leave it and hope that things will naturally improve once he starts infant care? TIA

My baby was like that prior to me going back to work. You can try to give LO a piece of your shirt when your LO is drinking milk but someone else is doing the feeding using milk bottle and it is recommended that you are not around. My baby calmed down when she smell the shirt. Guess mama have a distinct smell that makes them feel safe and secured! :)
