I know one mother whose baby had become almost exclusively bottle-fed
during the early weeks before she passed an undiagnosed placental fragment,
and who had stopped accepting her breast. She decided if nipple confusion
was real, she was going to confuse him *big time*. She bought every kind
of bottle teat she could find, and used a different one at every feeding,
also offering her breast. Whether it was time, patience, a milk supply
that finally existed, or good psychology, it worked. She's now a LLL
Leader...
