i agree if wt is ok then plan is revised, but if needs supp w/ exp br milk
and will only latch onto shield, supp under shield as a transition from
bottle, then transition from shield as can, any transition will take as much
as how ever many weeks it took to establish the current situation.

as far as *not Bf consistently*, for a variety of reasons, including many
labor and birth related, i see this challenge so very frequently, ....the
fixes are as varied as the causes and precipatating factors,  but, patience
and persistance with Bf seems to be the most consistent fix.
