can't find link: bottle feeding the breastfed pls help

[Dagny]

There was a link posted here, I'm pretty sure this is where I found it. It
was about how to bottle feed your baby when you want him to be able to
return to the breast easily or switch back and forth between bottle and
breast. It had a picture of the baby being fed upright. I think it was
more of a journal article than a standard web page. Anyone remember this?
I can't find it in the archives.

One of my not very close friends just had her baby 2 weeks ago. She said
the baby wasn't nursing productively at the breast so she has been pumping
and bottle-feeding hoping to phase back in to exclusive bfing asap. She
said they would weigh her after feedings and it would be less than an ounce
gain, but she will take bm in a bottle. She said she knows other people
this has happened to and so does the lactation consultant.

So I told her I would send her this link (when I found it) --

TIA,
Dagny

Has she considered using a SNS? I had a love/hate relationship with it.
Without it, I don't think my milk would ever have come in (it took
over 3 weeks due to my serious complications after their birth), but I
really hated dealing with formula/EMM, SNS tubes, tape, and two babies
for the 3 months that I used it.
