The writing will come back when you get a chance to think about something other than the baby eating. I think I agree that there is not much nipple confusion, but nipple preference. My kid would take a bottle, but ONLY under duress, when I wasn't there. She could switch, she just preferred the boob and said so. If I was there, her stubborn nature prevented her from being satisfied by a bottle. If I wasn't there, she'd complain, but eventually she'd take it. I gave up even trying a bottle, because it wasn't worth the pumping, etc. to keep making her do it (and it was miserable for everyone). But it was a vastly different situation from yours, as she was gaining weight just fine. You aren’t boring.
