Bottle-Fed 6 Month Old

My 6.5 month old has been bottle fed since 2 weeks old. We use the Avent bottles. We've tried to switch to the "3" nipple flow since he was 3 months, without success. It worked for awhile at around 5 months, but then he got a cold and had trouble breathing and eating and would either fight off the bottle, cough or cry so we switched back to the "2". Not only is it taking forever to feed him but he gets frustrated with eating and cries to push the bottle away. Then when we try again, he'll fight it off over and over until it works for...

Baby Can't Stay Latched on and Seems to Need More Milk than I Can Provide

I have a 3 month old baby girl and for the past week she doesn't seem to want to stay on my breasts. She would latch on, suck a few times, then come off. I have tried nursing her in different positions but she still continues to latch on and off. Does anyone have any idea why my baby would be doing this? Any advice on how to help her to stay latched on? Also, for the past week after nursing her on both breasts, she is still hungry. She would root, cry, move her head left and right, and when I put my finger next to her mouth, she...
