I need help!! My breastfeed baby doesn’t want to take the bottle.

Hi all, I need suggestions as I have tried to search on how to get a breastfed Baby to take the bottle. Sometimes she will drink from the bottle but most of the time she doesn’t want to. She will not take the pacifier as well. I’ve bought different bottle for her to try (NUK, Avent, Dr Brown,Pigeon) . But so far only Pigeon wide neck bottle was a success previously. I have tried to change the Nipple to a slow drip but she does not buy it. I will be going back to work in another 2 months. Help!!!

Who feeds using the bottle? It is said that the mum who is breastfeeding should not feed using the bottle. Ask someone else to feed it. That way, the smell associated with you feeding the baby directly does not interfere with the bottle feeding. Hope that helps.
