YES To The Bottle  $45 (PDF file)

Hi, I’m Szilvia Lanzas, The Bottle Aversion Coach. I’ve worked with thousands of families navigating bottle aversion.

Over the last five years, I’ve been asked again and again to help breastfed babies learn to take a bottle. I’ve tried several times to create a program that’s both gentle and effective, one that works for most families.

But I couldn’t do it. What I discovered surprised me. In fact, it was the opposite of what I had previously believed. I used to think that the hard part was teaching the skill of drinking from a bottle and that once babies had that, breast preference would fade on its own. But through working closely with moms and babies, I found that wasn’t true.

What I’ve seen is this:

● Most babies learn the skill of bottle drinking quickly, usually within 1 to 3 days.

● But moving past breast preference — and being truly comfortable with both bottle and breast — often takes much longer.

For many families, following through becomes an emotionally overwhelming and challenging experience. Because of that emotional piece, I decided not to offer a complete program for breastfed babies. The success rate was simply not high enough.

But the requests kept coming. And when I explained that I can teach the skill, but I don’t have a gentle, guaranteed fix for breast preference, moms still said, “Yes, I want the skill part.”

So here it is. This ebook is about helping your baby learn the skill of drinking from a bottle. It’s not about building long-term bottle-feeding habits. That part is more personal; it depends on your baby’s temperament, your parenting style, and your goals.
