Helo Varsha. You talk to your baby make him calm, give him a good massage and do cycling exercise. Sometimes your baby may be colic also. when he cries does he bend his arms and legs towards belly? Maybe because of colic he maybe refusing to take breastfeed. Infant massages helps alot in such situations. You can read the following article to know the importance of infant massage Blogs- https://www.parentune.com/parent-blog/newborn-baby-massage-benefits-when-to-start-how-to-massage-precautions/2231

Hi Varsha ! Is he on bottle feed too? If yes babies prefer bottle feed over breastfeed due to the ease of sucing and easy flow. Keep trying in a dark room when when baby is hungry. or baby could do so when he is unwell.
