Well, today marked another first for Elijah. He had his first bottle. We decided to try it so Philip could have the chance to bond with him during a feeding and so that eventually he could get used to it to give us a little more freedom (not that I am sure I want it now). He took the bottle right away and had no problems. For me, I started to cry....I am not sure why but it was hard to see someone else feeding him. This is just silly because when we first brought Eli home Philip helped by finger feeding him and I always welcomed that....things have really changed from those early days. I am doing fine now, but was happy when he was done with the bottle but still wanted more so I could finish feeding him :)

Abby,
I did the same thing the first time Greg fed Noah with a bottle. I actually had to leave the room, because I couldn't stand to watch it. I was forced to stop nursing both boys (horrible supply issues) and that about tore my heart into a million pieces!
I'm glad he took the bottle so well though! :)
