XP Dec '11: Introducing a bottle

DS will need to take a bottle when he goes into daycare at 12ish weeks. My BFing class said to introduce a bottle at 3-4 weeks if BFing is well-established. BFing is going great for us so we started trying to introduce a bottle this week. (I should mention that DS did have to take the bottle with formula for two days while I was in the hospital with complications from my c-section.) He did great yesterday evening with DH giving him the bottle and also took it fine for those two days I was gone. However, tonight when DH tried to give him the bottle again, DS screamed bloody murder for an hour until I came and nursed him.

So I guess my question is: for those of you who are BFing and have introduced a bottle, do you have any tips to make the transition easier? TIA :)
