[blparent] Blindtlk] blindtlk OT: Talking Baby Bottles?

[Bridgit Pollpeter]

Often a baby fusses and won't take the bottle if they need a burp. So
this is an indicator to stop and burp. Burp frequently, but you can
either continue to put only an ounce in at a time, which is roughly 1/8
of a cup, or you can have a talking kitchen weight. We had to use one
for Declan since we needed exact ounces he drank from a bottle before
hooking up his feeding tube to give him the rest. We bought a talking
weight from Amazon for like $30. Since you are baby sitting and not a
parent, this may not be practical, unless you plan to baby sit a lot.
