Teething could definitely be the culprit - My DS went on a bottle strike and refused to touch a bottle for 5 days when he was teething.

What bottles are you using?  Have you tried trying a different bottle / shaped teat?

We found with the Avent bottles they gave our DS a lot of wind when he was younger.  We used the NUK teats on a normal long neck bottle.  I have also heard good things about the DR Brown bottles, but they are quite expensive.
