Go back to bottle: Baby might be getting sick and dehydration is very dangerous at this age. When sick, we all like to be comforted. Give him/her whatever you can get in by using something comforting, like a nipple. Water down favorite foods and feed that way. If few diapers and getting sleepy or less playful, or if a fever (take temperature; don't guess!) see a clinic.
