We asked Auntie Heather to come over and help with the feeding her. We both are new at this and really had no clue how to handle it. Heather helped us so much and I loved sitting back and seeing her feed Kinsley. It was beautiful.
The bottle that I chose to test her on is the Breast Flow bottles made by the First Years. Last week I meet with my baby group mom's and a few of them told me that they were using the bottle because it made the baby work for food and they control the flow like a real breast. It is cool because it requires suction and compression for the milk to come out. I was so happy to find something that works because in no time I will be back to work and she will need to drink from the bottle.
Wow, you are very lucky that she liked it so well! We tried the very same bottle with Emily for her first bottle of breastmilk, and she HATED it! Wouldn't drink from it at all. We eventually tried a couple other types of bottles, and the only one she even tolerates is the Playtex Drop-ins one. And even then it's a fight to get her to drink from it. Luckily she won't have to do it often! I'm glad Kinsley is doing so well with the bottle, she's a great girl! :)
ReplyDeleteThat is so nice that Kinsley is taking to it good. I hope that it keeps going well, when you need to use a bottle. :-)
