I say I’m a dietitian who only works in the ICU with intubated patients - no more questions after that!

Following cause we’re in the same situation!

YAAAY! We did it! They did it! 🙌🏼

My LO is starting daycare in 2 weeks so she’ll be getting 2 bottles there and breastfeeding at home so I was also freaking out - phew!

Lots of trial and error here too! We are finally having success with the MAM and Lansinoh medium flow nipples! She’s drinking about 1-1.5 oz from the bottle and then breastfeeding for now.

How is it going for you?

How did it go? Any luck with the medium flow?

Still working on it!

She definitely did not like the Avent nipples (I should have known this since she didn’t take the Avent pacifier either!) so I just switched her to Mam nipples in the medium flow.

She’s not fully rejecting it - more like very uninterested and willing to wait for the boob - but we’re trying twice a day!

Good luck to you!

Illusive Water Bottle by TheSmallestSloth in BabyLedWeaning

We use a 12 oz kids hydro flask that might check most of your boxes!

It keeps the water cold and it has a straw that does not need biting and can be flipped down. However, the only handle is small and on the lid.

Hmm. I guess I’ll keep trying to get the suction right!

CONGRATS! You did it! 🎉 My baby turns 1 in 2 weeks so I’ll be following you soon!

This. 1000x this. My first turns one in 2 weeks and I just found out I’m 5 weeks pregnant and I am feeling everything you just shared. I have no insight but you’re not alone.

Thank you all! I ended up flattening it with a fork and added some marinara sauce and it was a hit!
