Woes be gone!

The Reinberg family finally has a working internet; thanks to our brilliant neighbor Jason who could probably build a computer in his sleep. Woohoo.
There is one woe however that has just begun with no clear end in sight and that is that Al will not take a bottle. He DID take a bottle up until last weekend, and now something has happened...great, right before I have to go back to work. He cried for 1 hour (excuse me did I say cry?, I meant scream) while I tried to give him a bottle yesterday. I finally gave up and let him nurse. I mean the little guy had tears streaming down his face. Horrible.
Today Cary is coming over and she is going to attempt. This has to work. I have purchased every bottle that is sold in the babys rus mega market and none have worked so far, so I am just picking the one that I want to work... Playtex drop in's with orthodontic nipples. This one had great luck with Hunter and he was really stubborn, so we will see what Al thinks. Results to come...

Ha! You never knew your life would be so dependent on Jason! Next thing you know, you'll be in his next film...
We'll keep trying on that bottle.

He will take a bottle Aaron, and if he doesn't right away, he will... they can be stubborn, and I know how hard it is to hear them cry (scream)... something to try, give Beau, Linda, anyone other than you, the bottle and Al (at his feeding time) and you leave the room, actually leave the apartment (if he knows you are there or even senses or smells, he will want you), so leave, go to the lobby, car, on a walk with the cell phone, and let them try to give the bottle for awhile... this really helped with Trent... good luck!

I know that is hard. Harrison has refused to take bottles on and off; however he has eventually given in when I am not home. When I'm there he has lasted a long time. Good Luck!
