Isn't it too early for a one month old child to get used to bottle? If your child is getting enough milk from breast feed then the child will be satisfied and no need for bottle. This weaning from bottle starts when the child has been on bottle feed for 7-8 months.
You should also consider if it will be possible for you feed the baby as per his demands. This point is significant for working women.
