A. hi once baby get used to of formula feeds ,it is common for them to avoid breastfeeding but as breastfeeding is more nutritious , to provide it more , you can offer formula for few minutes after that replace the bottle with your breast ,pour some drops of formula on your nipple before you start direct feeding ,so child accept the direct breastfeeding easily.
