Bottle suggestion for supplementing?
I am 8 days postpartum and trying to get BF to work, but am struggling with low supply and latching issues. My little guy dropped almost a pound his first 4 days so the pediatrician wanted us supplementing with formula. He of course, took right to the bottle. I also started pumping. After seeing a lactation consultant I now think we finally have the latching down, but DS has gotten so used to the bottle, he gets lazy and will only latch for short periods of time. I know it's because he gets the milk/formula so much easier/faster from the bottle. I am wondering if anyone has had a similar problem and has advice, or if anyone can suggest a bottle that may be slower-flow and not so easy for him??
Any help would be great, I am at my wits end

We use Tommee tippee bottles. My twin boys both BF and I pump milk and give them in bottles.
