I think I failed in breastfeeding..

It was really hurting when my baby started sucking my nipples, so I started pumping and bottlefeeding. And then, I overproduced milk, so he hasn't sucked well because of pressure. Now he doesn't suck my nipples at all because he's used to the bottle nipple...

Any advice or I might stop breastfeeding in the near future?

The exact same thing happened to my son. I overproduced and had an overactive letdown so he got lazy and wanted the bottle instead. Just keep trying to put him to breast first then after a bit give him the bottle. My son never would go back to the breast after he got use to the bottle. Good luck! If anything can you just keep pumping so baby gets breastmilk?

You can try a nipple shield to get him back on the breast but you cant use one forever.
