J.T.
Every baby is different, but when my daughter was born her first 3 days were bottle only. She was in the NICU and I had a fever and could not see her. All I could do was pump and watch the nurse walk away with the bottle. On the bright side, my husband was in the NICU with her and was able to feed her. After I was able to see her we started nursing and there were no problems, she took to it like a champ. The end result was that she would take either and I was able to pump and then be able to go out for a little while with out having to worry about her being hungry.
Good luck!
