Sienna was a great breastfeeder up until 2 months, when we flew from Australia to south America, the 30 hour flight and jet lag made my supply dry up. The day we arrived she cried from 3am to 11am and eventually I sent my dad out to buy formula. She loved it :( she loves bottles and has been rejecting the boob. I have been trying really hard to only give her a bottle or two a day. I spend hours expressing to limit how much formula I give her and spend ages trying to latch her. She has to be sleepy and sucking her dummy, then I quickly pull the dummy out and put my boob in. And once she is latched I have to rock her standing up, if I sit down she cries!! I really want to make it to 6 months, any advice?
 
Check for ear infection or stuffy nose. Babies will reject breastfeeding for that sometimes especially when bottle is easier.
