Lately my 8 week old is refusing to latch on, when I put him to my breast he just pulls away and screams or he'll latch on for 2 seconds and then pull off screaming. I finally gave in and gave him a pumped bottle last night and he downed all 4oz. Is the beginning of me needing to exclusively pump? why is he refusing to latch on all of a sudden?

does this happen at all feedings or just certain times of the day?
