"My 9 1/2 month old son has been basically refusing bottles for about three months. While he is a good eater of solid foods most days, I was still concerned about his nutritional status and wondered if I'd be breastfeeding this kid forever (or at least until he can handle a cup better). Then I found the adiri bottle--what a lifesaver! He latched onto it like a fish on a minnow. Now, I feel like there's hope for weaning him and I don't have to worry about whether he's getting enough to eat during the day while I'm at work."
That's the testimonial I hoped to write for the adiri bottle website. However, it turns out that Boden is treating it just like the others...i.e. not interested. No fault of the bottle, I'm sure. Next tactic...give up. Although yesterday at daycare, Boden took 8 oz from a bottle-- just as the lactation consultant and pediatrician said: "He'll eat when he's hungry.".
