hi neetu,

u feed him for sometime, then switch to bottle and end up with breast. likewise u wean him to bottle.

also, i read an article from a book, where they suggest to mix 3/4th breastmilk with 1/4 formula and give the baby. gradually drecrease the amt of breastmilk and increase formula. it will take some time. but before that ask ur pediac and get conformed about the mixing of formula and breastmilk.

all the best.

with love,
Jichi

You know Jichi I tried what you had mentioned but surprisingly even when he was asleep at breast he sensed when I switched over and got irritated. I tried another method..asked my husband to feed him when he was hungry that worked . I read that the babies are smart and they sense the mother and so don't want to settle for anything less. So its half success I mean I have not given him bottle yet ..lets see maybe in a day or 2 till then will let my husband give him the bottle. Thanks a lot for replying. BTW where are you settled India or U.S?
