Babies who are mixed-fed or purely artificially fed must accept bottles and make a smooth transition to bottle feeding. Some babies reject the bottle and are unwilling to suck on the pacifier. This is a very common problem. Most breastfed babies don't like sucking on a pacifier. How to make your baby accept the bottle smoothly? New mothers should not be too impatient and be patient. It takes a process for the baby to accept the bottle. Give the baby enough time to adapt.

Choose appropriate pacifiers and avoid using narrow-mouth pacifiers. It is recommended to use wide-diameter breast milk bionic pacifiers. If your baby refuses a certain pacifier, try another brand of pacifier, or use other feeding methods, such as using a small cup, spoon, syringe, or feeder.

It is very normal for babies who are exclusively breastfed not to take the bottle. As long as they are hungry for a few meals, they will naturally eat it. No child wants to starve himself. This is the saying that if you have milk, you are a mother. If you don't want your child to go hungry, there is a way to express the breast milk and put it into a bottle to feed. After sucking from the pacifier, mix the milk powder with the breast milk and finally replace it with milk powder.

Secondly, you can try to put the baby bottle with the mother's clothes and supplies so that the baby can see or touch it, which may help the baby build a sense of intimacy with the baby bottle. Parents should pay attention to observe whether the baby's sucking process is smooth and whether the baby is quiet. Sometimes you also need to pay attention to the softness and hardness of the pacifier and the size of the pacifier hole, because if the pacifier is too hard or the nipple hole is too small, it will be very laborious for the baby to suck milk. In the long run, the baby will lose interest in sucking milk and even hate the action of sucking milk.

If the baby is only willing to be fed by the mother but unwilling to take a bottle, it will also be painful and torturous for the mother.
