Battle of the Bottle Rages On

Monday was my first day back to work. It sort of felt like the first day of school. The time I've been gone seems immeasurable, yet by the end of the day it felt as if I'd never left. Looking at the clock thirty minutes in, I thought it was going to be a long day. Of course it actually went flying by me.
My only source of real anxiety was thinking about Ridley and what/how she was doing and how her daddy was doing watching her. Part of my anxiety is soothed knowing she's with her dad for these first two weeks (until he goes back to work), but another part is ramped up because Ridley is being very stubborn about taking a bottle.
Last week Phil got her to take almost an entire bottle (4 ounces) one day and about 2 ounces the next day. Yesterday, however, she only took about an ounce and this morning she didn't take any. Phil said that as soon as she saw the bottle she started shaking her head violently and screaming/crying. So it would seem we're going backward instead of forward.
Phil has been bringing her to me at work around lunch time so that I can at least breastfeed her once during my work day. Our thought was that it would allow her to ease into this transition. Yet, I am starting to suspect that breastfeeding her at lunch is simply undermining our efforts to get her on the bottle. Today we have agreed not to have a lunch time nursing. I'm not sure that's the best course of action, but it all seems like trial and error anyway. I'm hoping that if she gets hungry enough she'll take the bottle. And I'm still nursing her when I get home and before I leave the next morning.
If all else fails, a La Leche League member advised us to use a dropper to at least make sure she has some milk in her tummy. The same woman also said that some babies just never take to the bottle really and hold out until they're able to take the sippy cup. This may mean that she rotates her feeding schedule, which could mean sleeping more during the day and wanting to nurse throughout the night. That's definitely not a situation that I want to live out, but I may have to. Thank God for the side laying nursing position!
