[karinothing]

alert the presses! 

DH got him to take a bottle. He is taking it while lying flat on his back on his play mat lol. But hey, whatever works! I think the fact that he started to suck his thumb let him realize it was okay to suck on stuff other than well me. go baby!

Speaking as the mother of a bottle refuser - CONGRATULATIONS! That is awesome news!

Congratulations!! DD took a bottle for the first time when she was flat on her back on the floor, too.

Babies are odd.

Congratulations! I always tell people that the hardest part of C's first year was the first month I was back to work and he refused the bottle. That shit is no joke! Fingers crossed it continues well!

My mom got DD to drink an ounce today by sucking on my moms index finger while she squeezed the nipple.

Awesome! WE only tried an oz. I think we will just keep working with an oz at a time until he takes it every time. I am hoping he has no issues with them by the time CHristmas rolls around so I can go to the nutcracker!

[missmaddie]

Congrats! Jealous, but that's still awesome.

I have a wedding in 2 weeks and I was previously freaking out.  I'll only be gone about 6 hours so as long as DD will drink something I think I can feel at ease.
