     I had a similar problem with my daughter when she was two
months and I had to get her used to a bottle for daycare.  One
try with the bottle, and she refused to nurse! (they don't mention
this one in the breast feeding books).

     I refused to express milk for her just because she didn't want
to do the work herself, so when she refused the breast, I put her down
until the next feeding time.  It took about two feedings, but she
finally realized that she wasn't getting anything else.  I also had
to listen to her scream for 4 hours, but I figure that if she is really
hungry, she is going to eat.

     Your baby is younger, so I don't know how this relates, but it
worked for me.
