What I do know, is that even the hardest phases don't last forever. I try to be happy where I'm at, because soon, I'll be somewhere else.<br /><br />(By the way, I wandered here from Cjane's blog. Just in case you were wondering.)Ameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13498144195088641628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16785398.post-71554194410125090352010-10-19T20:56:03.173-04:002010-10-19T20:56:03.173-04:00Yes agree with first comment especially about hav...Yes agree with first comment especially about having someone else give bottle and try not to be near. Also the nipple does make a difference to nursing babies sometimes also so do try to have PH change the nipple as he gives the bottle. Sounds like Funnykid is doing great but hate to tell you that you have many years ahead of you of losing sleep!

At her eight week check up, the nurse asked about her eating and sleeping habits and we said that we had started to wake her up every four hours to make sure she ate. We didn't know that once she started sleeping longer we were supposed to <i>let</i> her do that because they told us in the hospital to make sure she ate every four hours! We even set alarms!!!! <br /><br />As for taking a bottle, you should not be the one introducing it if you've been nursing. All he can smell is you and your milk and that's all he's going to want. If it's not an option, let him nurse for a bit, then try the bottle. If he's not ravenously hungry, he may be more accomodating to something different. (This also holds true when introducing cereal around 4-6 months. You start with a bottle, then try the cereal because a hungry baby doesn't like interuptions in the routine.)<br /><br />Good luck!Pollyannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06489328345319644933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16785398.post-22952120040900202752010-10-17T22:28:59.337-04:002010-10-17T22:28:59.337-04:00how to get this kid to take a freakin' bottle....<i> how to get this kid to take a freakin' bottle...</i><br /><br /><b>Add gin?<br /><br />Oops, wrong age guy. ;-)</b><br /><br />But seriously,<br />some <a href="http://www.askdrsears.com/html/2/T025000.asp" rel="nofollow">Bottle-feeding tips</a>.
