Hi, my baby is 2months old. I'm bottle feeding her from 1 month. Now she refuses to breastfeed. Is there anyway so that I  can breastfeed her? Is it true that formula fed babies will have low immunity? She is having nasal congestion what shall I do to cure it? Can I put sterile saline solution daily for nasal congestion?

There is no substitute of breast feeding..try again & again , the baby will start accepting breast feed..breast milk provides significant immunity for the baby which a formula fed baby may not have that immunity. U can put sterile saline solution daily for 3-4 days
