I see worse and worse nursing strikes when babies have the bottle as an option, especially if mom is in anyway a scheduling feeder or routinely limits time at the breast. I recommend cup feeding and lots of snuggle time and mom thinking from child's perspective. Mom plays detective, what is the baby trying to communicate.
