    Are you talking about bottles of formula or expressed breast milk? I can only give advice on bottles of breast milk but it might also help if it's formula you're trying to use. with that I had to make sure that i was in another room when the bottle was given so she couldn't smell the milk on me. My husband would try to replicate what I did with breast feeding so hold her at a similar angle, holding a muslin over his shoulder that smells of milk, trying different temps as some babies like warm milk & some prefer it cooler. Also, as she's 8 months, it might be worth offering the milk in a cup rather than a bottle. Good luck
