This happened to us. DS2 would take bottles from me the week before I went back without a problem. He refused from DH. He caved eventually but every Monday he still resists DH a little. I'll be curious if we have another hard transition when we start day care.
C does this. He eats a ton with me, but only eats 8-9 oz some days with my mom (she has him about 9 hours). He got better after a few weeks of me being back to work, but he's still not a huge eater some days, then eats a ton at night. I guess it has a name - reverse cycling.
Mine refused to eat the first day, too. Fine the next. And then Monday (his second week) he was reluctant again.
RexManningDay, what bottles are you using? Also, my DS did that at first, too, but now (albeit with different bottles) eats what I think is just the right amount. It's stressful, though!

My second never took more than 4 oz when I was gone 8 hrs and 8 oz when I was gone 12 hrs. She reverse cycled like a pro, so it was never an issue (except for my sleep!).
