A MUM has shared the clever trick she uses to make her breastfed baby drink from a bottle with no fuss at all.

Scarlett, from the UK, shared the hack on TikTok, leaving parents blown away.

In the short clip posted to her account Home With Scarlett, the mum was trying to feed her daughter, Amalie using a bottle.

But Amalie was having none of it – that's when Scarlett decided to try the clever trick.

She said: "I'm going to try the trick I used when she was a little baby."

"They get the sensation that it's a nipple because it's warm," Scarlett explained.

She went over to her microwave and put the teat of the bottle in for thirty seconds and let it cool down until it was just warm.

Scarlett then tried to feed Amalia again, and after a little bit of squirming, she finally began drinking from the bottle.

"I can't believe that worked again, I forgot about that little trick," she exclaimed.
