  If you want your baby to breastfeed and use a bottle, you can pay attention to adjusting the feeding method.

Breast milk and formula can also be mixed and mixed together before feeding to children. When choosing milk powder, try to choose milk powder with a light taste that is similar to breast milk for feeding.

  Because the baby's gastrointestinal system is not yet fully developed and their digestive function is not very good. If the feeding method is not correct, it is easy for the baby to experience indigestion and diarrhea. It is necessary to feed the appropriate amount according to the child's weight and digestive ability, neither too much nor too little. In the future, some complementary foods can be added to enrich the child's nutritional structure.

If the baby is unwilling to drink breast milk even when it is placed in a bottle, it means that they are resistant to the bottle. Mothers can buy several other styles of bottles for the baby to choose from.
