Refusing the breast

DD who's 6 months old just started refusing the breast. She'll take from the bottle, but this is so frustrating. Any pointers, ideas or suggestions?

    My almost 5mo just started doing this also. He gets really frustrated that the milk doesn't come out immediately like it does with the bottle. So I'm in the same boat. It's gotten to the point now where sometimes I can't get him to nurse at all and have to give him a bottle and then pump which sucks. Hopefully we get some good advice!

    @NGilmerGirl‌ I read that babies may like the bottle better because it's "easier" and faster, but I flow quick fast so I don't think that's what the problem is for me. Yesterday and this morning, I had to pump and give her a bottle. It does suck! I already pump 5 days a week at work and this weekend I had to do it too! I really do hope it does pass!
