Today’s mothers are lucky because science and technology comes in their help and sells them lots of tips and tricks. One of their biggest concern is about breast feeding. Advices are really needed in this case when women do fluctuate from breast feeding to bottle feeding.
When women do want to go back to work shortly after they gave birth, but they do want to breast feed their baby too so they encounter a problem here and lots of them don’t know they do have several options. You can try to mix breast feeding with formula milk or you can also express your milk only and anyone can feed the baby with mother’s milk anytime needed, the father, the nanny or grandparents. But you have to remember that breast feeding bottle milk is not recommended when the baby is under 4 months old. Even babies may deny bottles, using a bottle requires several different techniques from the ones used in breast feeding and the child will definitely make the difference. Some babies will never accept bottles in feeding but there are some other options you can apply at. There are now bottles that try to simulate mother’s breast and you can try this option too in case nothing else is working. If your child will refuse the bottle, try to let someone else to give the bottle to the baby. Another technique is about trying to feed the baby with the bottle when he is really hungry because he will not deny it definitely. You can also try to feed him in different places than usually and the baby will associate new locations with new things. You can also try offering the bottle when is dark, when the baby don’t see much. Make sure the milk is warm enough before you offer it to your baby.

As woman you should try to experience breast feeding as long as possible in the first year of life because is very helpful for the mother and for the child too and the bond between them will become stronger.
