It worked for my son. He took both with no issues. Some babies take to both, and some will never go back to the breast after the bottle. It's a bit of a risk but sometimes well worth it so hubby can share the night time feedings;)

I wanted my son to take a bottle so when it comes time to weaning him, he will take a bottle without fuss. So i followed the advice of the book "save our sleep" by tizzie hall. She says the earlier that you introduce a bottle the more likely they will take it. I express milk and at 6pm my husband feeds our baby a bottle (It is good bonding and because we introduced it early he just took the bottle without a fuss). Then i would always feed baby after the bottle to ensure he gets enough milk.
