My girl rejected her bottle at about 10 months old. Since then I've been spoon feeding her milk. She didn't know how to suck from a straw then. It's hard to suck from those no spill straw cups so if your LO hasn't got the strength then you can consider drinking straight from a cup first. My girl eventually learnt to suck from a straw. I found the Richell straw cup quite good for learning to suck from a straw. It has a button on the cover for you to press. The pressure forces the liquid up the straw. It teaches the kid the idea of using a straw.
Hey Karen no worries at all. Actually, I latch him on whenever I can. But if I need another option, only way is via spoon. Sometimes he won't drink either, can tarhan the whole day. That is because he comfort feeds and Colsleep with me throughout the night.
Straw cup or the non spill sippy cup. For me by boy refuses any milk bottles. He is also unable to drink from a straw or sippy cup. So I ended up having to spoon feed my ebm.

Straw cup. Transited my girl from direct latch to straw cup to drink her milk. (Any straw cup is fine with her)
