3 Months and Won't Take a Bottle HELP!

My daughter will be 3 months next week and I'm breast feeding her. I tried to introduce the bottle at 5-6 weeks (way too late) and now I can't get her to take the bottle. Only a handful of times she's taken it and she stopped at 2 oz. So I know she can take that nipple. Most the time when I try she ends up crying so bad I feel like I'm torturing her. I know she's hungry. I have had my husband try but he doesn't have the patience nor the skill. I'm going back to work on Jan 19th. I'm an out side sales rep so I can come home to feed...

How Do I Get My 4 Month Old to Feed from the Bottle?

My 4 month old daughter is too used to the breast and will not feed from the bottle. When we try and give it to her, she fusses, screams and cries until we give her the breast. We've even tried Avent, Dr. Brown, Nuk, etc nipples to see which one is closest to the real thing. We've even tried feeding her with the bottle in the morning when she is the most hungry but that doesn't work either. Will she get better if I start feeding her rice cereal? This makes it really hard to leave her with a babysitter. Any suggestions would be greatly...

Another Feeding Question

I know there are quite a few questions like this...is my baby eating enough...how often should he eat...etc, etc...but my son was a little PIGGY for the past few weeks (is is 9 weeks old). He was eating 2-3 oz every hour or so...but today he has slowed down quite a bit...he has been sleeping all day (not altogether unusual for him...he was a premie and sleeps quite a bit)...and is only eating about 2 oz every 2-3 hours....is this normal? We are going to the pediatrician wednesday and i will bring this up with him, but should I call sooner...

Sleeping Through the Night and Diaper Changes

My 12 week old daughter suddenly went from sleeping from 8/9 pm to 12 am and every 2 hours thereafter religeously to sleeping from 8 pm to 6 am a couple of weeks ago. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining about the sleep, but I am concerned about the sudden progress as she's now going longer without a diaper change and eating less through the night. Is this normal? Should I wake her up after so many hours of sleep to change and feed her? I've asked my friends, but have not gotten any positive or negative feedback on it. They mostly...
