Hi
As he is tolerating a rather big amount in a short amount of time from a
bottle my brain doesn't go to reflux.
None of my ideas make sense out of the fact that he is spitting up when
directly feeding from the breast, unless she is holding him very
differently with bottle feeding, therefore it is possible a restriction
clicks in, in a certain position, making him throw up. I would start
with body work (my favourite is Cranial Osteopathy, but it needs to be
someone good) and see what difference this makes and afterwards assess
for a tie too.
If she tried a shield and the baby shredded the nipple - it is more then
likely that the shield was far to big.

He began vomiting breastfed breastmilk at about a month Mother is now only bottlefeeding EBM, which the baby tolerates beautifully, he takes 3oz in 10 minutes or less. She is really tired of pumping. When I suggested a (choke) nipple shield, she said she had already tried it and that it "tore up" her nipples.
