Disadvantage to bottle feeding

I have come to accept that Heidi will be fed by the bottle, but there are still some disadvantages to it. For example, when she wakes up in the middle of the night and is hungry, she wants food and wants it now! However, it takes time to mix up the formula and to heat it up. So, this is usually what she looks like when she's waiting for her bottle:



Even though it is sad, there is still something so cute about her cry. Especially when she gives those pathetic little whimpers. She does that especially when she's getting tired.

Thankfully, her crying stops immediately as soon as we give her her bottle.



Of course there are many advantages to bottle feeding. One of them is that Clint can feed Heidi and have that bonding experience with her. :)

"Bonding" - what you really mean is that you get some extra sleep, right!? I'm slightly jealous, LOL! Plus, you and Clint will get to go out on dates again. I can't believe how much Heidi has already gained - that is awesome! One thing you could do is prepare the bottles before you go to bed, then all you'd have to do is heat it up.

Love ya, Lana
