"Any words of wisdom to share with this mom to help her confidence?
She is now putting him to breast at most feedings during the day, with a
small shield, then feeding him pumped milk by bottle. Baby's weight gain is
good."
Just a thought to add to other noteworthy suggestions, Jennifer; could mom
single pump the unused breast while baby is breastfeeding? This I've seen
dramtically help with twins who differ in their sucking abilities and also in
situations like yours; the pumping encourages MER and baby doesn't have to work so
hard.
