Our Bottle Woes

 

 

These pictures are very deceptive. One would think that Liam loves his bottle and has been a cheerful, happy boy today. Anything but! Liam was a champ for the first 5 months at taking a bottle when I wasn't around. However, people have been reporting to us that when they've babysat, Liam hasn't been taking the bottle. A few days ago I decided to get him back on the bottle, so it was all bottle, all day. After trying several different nipples, he seemed to find one he liked and like he was on the right track. Today, I thought it would be a good idea to give him a bottle to reinforce the idea. Liam apparently forgot everything he learned and it was back to square one. He has not been a happy baby today. We've tried the bottle, sippy cups, and even drinking out of a regular cup. Anyone have some good ideas on how to get him to take the bottle again?

eventually he will get hungry and then "relearn" to take the bottle. something about a growling stomach that makes you want to put food and drink back in your mouth :)
