Getting your baby used to bottles in order to go back to work can be difficult. For me, my child did not want to take the bottle in the beginning because with my first child, I had such a difficult breastfeeding him that I had such a positive experience the second time. So I did not want to stop breastfeeding in order to bottlefeed to go back to work. So she refused the bottle for a long time. And what I did was I just began to give her the bottle a little bit at a time. And it was easier actually to give the bottle to someone else to have them feed her. So I had my good friends help me feeding her with the bottle a little bit at a time. Also, my husband helped and eventually now she is a pro at it.
