Indeed from what I saw the pacifier was a real culprit here! But why 
wouldn't the baby suck on breast that at least gives drops of milk when he 
is ready to suck on a pacifier that doesn't give him anything?

Baby and Mom are now , indeed being treated for thrush. I dearly hope that 
that is all that is going on there. Mom is rebuilding her supply with 
motilium and pumping and reported that baby eats better and longer when she 
is on her side.
Thanking all for their their insight and taking time to help.

The problem probably originates with the pacifier :-(  Babies can coast 
along fairly well on mom's original burst  of milk supply, but not enough 
sucking early on leads to faltering supply as you are now seeing -usually 
anywhere from 1-3 mo.  Formula gets introduced and the next thing you know, 
baby is formula fed and BF is over :-(.  (My opinion).
Baby A probably needs to be treated for thrush, in spite of Dr's opinion and 
mom needs to be treated again at same time.  Baby B needs rule 1 - Feed the 
Baby.  However you can, with whatever you can get (mom's milk or formula). 
Supply in both moms needs to be stimulated with frequent nursing and 
pumping.  Pat in SNJ
