A. In medical science, it is advisable for you to exclusively breastfeed your child for next six months. I don’t understand the need of giving a bottle if you are breastfeeding, your child because nothing can replace the natural sucking reflex from Mother’s breast. It increases child’s bonding.

A. I know Philips avent is the best among all the bottles available. I did a search about bottles and philps avent was best and suggested by everyone, that's why i purchased it. I even changed the nipple from natural to natural response😓.

A. The bottle is very comfortable the brand that you’re talking about is one of the best in the business these days so definitely it’s not an issue of the bottle I think your child is not willing to quit breastfeeding which is why your child who is behaving like this
