yep, it happened. it actually happened about three weeks ago now, and we've been trying every day to get him to take a bottle... four different types of nipples and bottles. BUT, to no avail.
1) a sign this boy has a mind of his own (surprising right?)
2) a sign this boy is stubborn as ever (also, very surprising...)
3) a sign this boy has grown a strong mommy attachment
and that's the thing... i have to go back to work on august 24th. so, as painful as it is for all of us, we're thankful that he won't remember, and we all know that he'll eat when he's hungry enough.
p.s. any other tips and tricks out there? send them our way please :)!

awww im sorry... i have a tip/trick... mommy retirement to SAHM :)
I hope this helps: www.thingamababy.com/baby/2007/04/malelactation.html
Awww he is part of the Fong family. My coworker said to try these...

so, the fortunate thing is... he's taken to a bottle this week. but it does require some coaxing. usually he has to be visually distracted by something (like the fan or the light fixture in the bathroom) so that he doesn't move his head from side to side. and then, he either has to be shushed or chanted to. this week the chant goes... "mommy's nai nai in this place, mommy's nai nai for baby chase". but if for some reason things go sideways again, we'll try that fancy looking bottle... and then resort to the daddy option. but if we win the lottery... it's the SAHM option. wish us luck!
