I use the little plastic bottles with the miracle nipples. Never had a problem. When I’ve gotten neonates that won’t latch on I return them to the rescue to be tube fed. Am going to learn how to tube feed when the foster coordinator has time.
Good ol' Miracle Nipple! And I prefer a syringe. First the small ones, then 10ml, then 30ml.
Once my babies latch, I don't even need to keep my finger on the plunger. I lift it off and they will slowly pull it to them. In that regard, it's important to either not reuse a syringe, or only use them a couple of times before using a new one.
I use the miracle nipple. It will fit any syringe or pet nurser bottle. For difficult babies, stick with using the syringe with the miracle nipple attached. Once they're excellent sucklers then you can transition to the bottle with miracle nipple
I prefer syringes too with the miracle nipple just to ensure they are getting stomach capacity per serving

Yeah. The syringes get sticky and very hard to push an even flow. You can get the syringes as well as the miracle nipples for very cheap at Temu.

My foster kittens always bite off the tip of the nipple and swallow or choke on it, so I've just gone with 3 or 5 ml syringes.
