Weaning Baby

Sometimes if you are trying to get your baby to drink milk from a bottle, they can turn into "fuss pots" and they will often reject plain bottle teats or bottle nipples. Or if your baby does drink from a bottle then they can often get lazy and not return to breastfeeding. Alot of bottle teats the milk just comes out so easily that baby learns that, and doesnt return to the breast!

So yes it can be a stressful time
weaning baby.

One product that I have used myself, for a fussy baby, is the
Chu Chu teat. It works the same as a mother's nipple, baby has to work to get the milk out. With my son, he rejected a lot of other teats but took to this one straight away.

You dont need to purchase
special bottles, you can use all the narrow-neck bottles that you already have and the teat will fit. And there is only one teat size, so you dont need to upgrade as your child gets older.

Its not a bad price to give it a try. You can order them from our webstore: http://www.breastmates.co.nz/chu_chu_teats.html
