Breastfeeding after baby is 2 months old

I have stopped breastfeeding for now & giving breast milk through bottle. Is it ok if i were to start breastfeeding back once the baby is a lil big around 2 months old? Cause i did try breastfeeding & since bby mouth is small i can't seem to get a good latch & my nipples are getting sore.

I'd recommend reducing your frequency of latching but not entirely stop for now to prevent nipple confusion. My baby didn't recognise the nipple as milk after I stopped for too long, and then refused to latch anymore. My own fault, makes me sad still.

I stopped for about a month, and retried at 3 months. By then it was too late.
