My 8 month old baby was exclusively breastfed for first six months. Now I am trying to introduce bottle feed but he is totally rejecting it. Any tips on how to make the baby take bottle feed?

It is a slow process, it will take time. He is used to the mothers nipples and bottle nipples are different so it will be s bit different and can cause nipple confusion. Thus babies tries to avoid or spit it out. Please wait. Continue to do small amounts as much as possible. Like around 30 ml once and c.. slowly only it will improve
