Baby rejecting bottle and formula

Question

Asked for Female, 0 Years

Hi, I have a 4 month old daughter who is rejecting formula and bottle since 3 days. Her current weight is 4.45 kg and her birth weight was 2.11 kg. She used to drink top feed before 3 days from bottle without any issues. She had mild fever which was resolved without any medication. I am using s-26 gold formula. Please suggest a way to feed her using bottle as she would be going to day care and they do not cater to other feeding methodologies.

Breast milk is easily digested, so newborns are hungry often. Frequent feedings helps stimulate your milk production during the first few weeks. By the time your baby is 4-5 months old, he or she probably will nurse 7–9 times a day. In the first few weeks of life, breastfeeding should be "on demand" (when your baby is hungry), which is about every 1-1/2 to 3 hours. As newborns get older, they'll nurse less often, and may have a more predictable schedule. Some might feed every 90 minutes, whereas others might go 2–3 hours between feedings. Newborns should not go more than about 4 hours without feeding, even overnight.
