Still you can make ur baby for BF but you have to keep patience ...
Avoid bottle feeding as bottle nipple is very soft and wont requires any efforts...bottle nipple confuse baby for sucking with mother's nipple...so stop bottke feeding...
Kindly latch properly baby and express few drops of BM and then try baby to suck on breast, so gradually baby will learn to suck on breast..
Next Steps

Stop bottle feeds. Bottle nipple are soft and mother’s hard, because of this confusion baby refuse to latch
Next Steps
Stop bottle feeds. Express your milk and give with spoon or pallada. Feeds when the baby is about to wake up and not while crying.
Have patience. Feeding will take time but eventually she will start taking breast feeds.
