A. avoid bottles as it causes nipple confusion. baby might not breastfeed well. also it ls common source of infection if sterility not maintained. .  first feed with spoon  make her habitual to bottle by giving expressed breast milk . use bottle only if absolutely necessary   try breastfeeding her for a few minutes then shift to bottle in the middle of the feeding. or offer bottle when hungry and sleepy. check if bottle nipple, flow rate is suitable .
