My 4-month-old baby boy cries a lot when trying to spoon feed milk because he refuses breastfeeding. He started crying a lot. As soon as we take him in the lap to feed he would start crying non stop, but when we take him on shoulder in between he will stop crying. It is getting really difficult to feed him as he becomes red and cries at very loud volume and it becomes scary as well. Any suggestions would be really helpful.
