2 month old stopped latching on bottle nipple

Looking for suggestions and/or. My 2 month old who has been drinking out of the Tommee Tippee bottles recently stopped latching properly. He now sucks in tons of air with every feed that leads to him having so much gas, he can't even finish his bottle. We tried everything...

- went up a nipple flow

- bought the vari flow

- bought anticolic bottles

- different positions

- fed him at the first signs of being hungry so we wasn't starving

Nothing is working. Has anyone else had this happen?

Any help or tips would be EXTREMELY appreciated. I'm starting to dread feeding him because it ends in tears almost everytime. :(

Is he exclusively bottle fed? Or breastfed as well? My daughter did this with Avent natural bottles. She ate fine out of them while we were nursing & bottle feeding. Now that she’s exclusively bottle fed she’s rejecting them. We’ve now switched over to Evenflo balance bottles with a medium flow nipple. He could possibly be rejecting the nipple/bottle now & you have to try a different brand.

Thank you for your help!! We were thinking we were going to have to switch as well.

He was exclusively bottle fed and on same brand since day 1.
