Yesterday, we introduced Riley to a bottle for the first time. The doctor told us to do it this week and that babies accept a bottle from dad much more willingly than from mom at first. So we filled up the bottle and tested it out.
Riley was a champ and not only finished the first trial ounce but asked for another. He didn't seem to mind that we were feeding him with a bottle - didn't even seem to notice actually.
We gave him another bottle at his 2am feeding too. Good news for me as I get to stay in bed for this one - bad news for Chris as he is now on the hook for a night time feeding!

Maybe you can put velcro on the bottom of the bottle and stick it to Chris' shirt so Riley thinks he's drinking from a ta. Just a thought...
Way to go, this is a big step!
