One of  these moms has newborn twins, and the baby girl will supposedly 
drink  breastmilk in a bottle, but the baby boy will only drink formula.  After 
 racking my brain, I cannot figure out what is going on.
~~~
Artificial infants milks flow may be flowing more slowly than mother's  
milk, could the baby feel unsafe with a faster flow rate than is experienced  
with the formula? Is mom used paced, upright bottlefeeding strategy with a  
"slow" ( meaning not overly fast) flow artificial nipple? I don't mean one 
that  says Slow I mean one that we've seen actually is slow/responsive. Or is 
normal  feeding such a challenge, or fast bottlefeeding such a habit that 
baby  prefers having food poured down his throat with one of those pre-filled  
promotional giveaways with formula and those "speed feed" or "squash N 
flood"  artificial nipples?
 
Just a few things to consider...

Peace,
