I would put my money on a tongue-tie. Take your finger and gently lift the
tongue from underneath...if you cannot see it, you should still be able to
feel it.
The other possibility is baby is waiting for a stiff stimulus in the roof of
the mouth like the bottle/fingers he is used to. You could try a nipple
shield and see if he gets going with that. It could also help with a
tongue-tied baby...but weight must be followed for 2 months as they often
cannot remove milk well.
