BF help

Hello May mothers. I'm new to this site (kind of) I've been browsing and it seems like a great resource. 

my little guy has been on a BF strike for about 15 hours...he cried for 1.5 hours tonight before bed, we usually nurse to sleep but he would just bite me tonight. Finally he went down, so I tried pumping, and there wasn't much milk. What milk I did get I gave to him in a bottle, when he woke about an hour later and he CHUGGED I mean CHUGGGGGGED it. I offered him my breast right after the bottle but he turned away from it!

I'm feeling all kinds of strange about this and devastated if he wants to wean! Has anyone had anything like this happen to them?

    Is he teething? My son gets all kinds of weird when he's teething and can't help but bite me. Maybe he prefers the bottle right now because he can bite it?

    Did you offer breast before bottle when he woke up? or did you give him the bottle first try?

    I tried to nurse first when he woke for about 15 minutes then gave up and went to the fridge. He woke again in the night I tried to nurse. He wouldn't, so more bottle. When he had finished the bottle, I offered the breast and at first he pulled away and then he nursed again.  

    No new  teeth to report, but molars are next on the roster, so maybe they were just moving. Thanks for your help!
