How to introduce bottles to 6m old, he is not drinking from cup or spout cup also, he simply plays with bottle but not drinking. Since even after waiting for 4+ hours, I end up force feeding him because he has become very lean not drinking enough. I feel guilt for force feeding him. Any tips and bottle suggestions to overcome bottle refusal
