Stories of bottle feeding after breastfeeding

Hello! My baby is 11 weeks today and had taken a bottle of expressed milk in the evening but up until two days ago has suddenly completely refused the bottle! Does anybody have any success stories on getting the baby to take the bottle? So far we've given it before he's hungry, I'm hiding in a different room, husband always does the bottle, temp of milk is lukewarm and today we've tried giving him bottle 5 times to which he took it twice (crying over wasted breastmilk Sad)

It's pretty normal that they develop a preference for either the bottle or the breast.

If you want to continue, have a look in the MN archive, there will be lots of old threads on bottle refusal.

I pretty much gave up on trying though and they had a cup if they ever needed milk and I wasn't around.
