: I have a five month old and am wanting some freedom from her. I am having a difficult time taking her off my breast and getting her on the bottle, any bottle. I have tons of frozen breast milk available for my husband to feed her but she refuses any artificial nipples, including pacifiers. What do I do? What type of nipple is the best for this situation?

Have you started feeding her rice ceral yet? My first baby refused to take a bottle at all! She started on ceral, and after that she would take the bottle. I guess the taste was familiar enough for her. my doctor told me to try the Avent bottles, and to put a little Kyro syrup on the nipple. Good Luck to you!!
