BF baby won't take bottle anymore

Looking for some support! My ds is 7 weeks old and alongside bf has been having a bottle of expressed milk in the evening. It's never been his favourite thing, but he's always taken a MAM bottle from 4 days old.

The last 3 night however, he has point blank refused a bottle. We've tried me being away from him but it doesn't seem to work and is very out of the blue since he's accepted a bottle for a while now.

If relevant, he doesn't have a dummy and has refused them in the past.
Any advice welcome!

Mine did this for several weeks but at 7 months takes them happily. I just kept offering.

@tealandteal do you think he could be chancing his luck then? Currently sat up in bed pumping and wondering if this milk will even get drunk!
