How old is your baby?  You might want to stop using the bottle for a while until she can learn to latch on to your breast and get the hang of that then reintrodyce the bottle

You can try a nipple shield. A lot of women use them if they have inverted nipples. This could help.

Have you tried pumping a little while to pull your nipple out then try getting her to latch?
