Besides trying different brands, will also need to find the teat with a flow that your baby likes.. the teat may be too slow or too fast. If too slow, baby will get frustrated and reject. If too fast, baby will choke and cough and also reject. If the teat touches baby’s mouth only and the baby turns away, can try warming up the teat first before to mimic body temperature. Most importantly, don’t give up keep trying, baby will accept one day!

Maybe you can try giving other brands like Hegen, Nuk, Dr brown etc? It might be frustrating but your baby could prefer the teats more similar to your nipples. Really need to be patient to find a suitable brand for your baby as some babies are more picky. My baby has not tried but from what I’ve heard from my colleague, Nuk teats is more similar to nipple. Good luck!

Try nuk bottle and dont be in the room when someone else is giving the bottle. Dont worry too much. My baby was the same but he eventually took the bottle. All the best!
