it seems you are giving child breastfeed every one hours to get nice nipple for sucking.in first two months child feeds for few minutes and sleeps.so he should be given breastfeed every one hours in day times.

If you give bottlefeed also it can cause nipple breast confusion and babies will refuse to drink breast . See if your nipples are cracked or retracted

Look for blocked nostrils if so instill saline nasal drop in each nostrils. While feeding baby take care of keeping nostrils free from breast pressure. If it doesn't work consult pediatrician.

Babies who are not sucking on mother's nipple may be having nipple confusion and breast refusal if they are getting bottle feeds.The mother should see a good lactation consultant with her baby to see the problem and learn hands on how to let the baby latch correctly
