ExpertDr. Minal AcharyaNutritionist4 years ago

A. Dear mum, it is best to avoid using feeding bottle, whether it is for feeding milk or water. You can feed water using katori and spoon. Once baby gets used in baby subsequently refuses to breastfeed and bottle feeding is a difficult habit to get rid of.
