Lactation specialist: As long as your child is not sick, it may be because the milk is easier to obtain from the bottle. If you can tolerate it attempt to breastfeed first before supplement, put a little milk on your nipple to entice, or pump your own milk. Also stay well hydrated and eat healthy meals. Lactation nurses are great for this as well.
