breastfeeding

anyone facing issue with latching after introducing formula to baby in the beginning? already decided to bf + formula from the start, but baby was latching well as baby wasn't bottle fed with formula. After bottle fed, baby kept latch unlatch and crying constantly, rejecting to bf. should I have bf exclusively from the start to prevent such situation? now I'm in a dipemma how to continue latching..
