There is no advantage in a baby's taking a bottle. At about 6 months of age, the baby can start learning how to drink from a cup, even though it may take several weeks for him to learn to use it efficiently.

Giving a bottle when breastfeeding is going badly is not a good idea and usually makes the breastfeeding even more difficult. <br/><br/><br/>For more Breastfeeding tips, visit <a href="http://Breastfeeding.lifetips.com/">http://Breastfeeding.lifetips.com</a> <img src="http://Breastfeeding.lifetips.com/images/aggbug.asp?id=75600" height="1" width="1">
