s Cristeen I notived you said you had PCOS and you have some challenges conceiving (your sig says you did ART for three years). Low supply and PCOS usually go hand in hand. You are doing the best you can with your body has dealt you. Have you thought about usually a SNS (supplemental nursing syetem) and give your breastmilk and formula in it. That way the constant stimulation of the nipple will force your breast to start producing more.The bottle makes it easier for your LO to become a lazy feeder. I highly suggest you contact a IBCLC and find out about SNS you may have to supplement for the duration of your nursing experience but your could be doing it while the baby is at the breast and not with a bottle.
Ultimately, you have to do what works best for you. You are doing a great job so give yourself a huge pat on the back.
