Feeling extremely discouraged

The other night I was posting how proud I am that I finally got a little bit of a routine down with my newborn getting him to fall asleep at night. Today is just a different story 😩😩 he hasn’t napped at all today, mainly because he falls asleep with the bottle in his mouth and the minute I remove it he wakes back up screaming. I try to replace it quickly with a binki but he knows the difference and he starts to gag and just refuses to take it. He isn’t hungry, it’s not like he’s actually drinking the bottle..he just wants it in his mouth. I don’t feel safe leaving it there for him to sleep like that. And I feel like it’s just going to turn into a horrible habit like that’s the only way he will go to sleep.. does anyone else have this issue? How can I stop it???
