bottle feeding drama

I've had to resort to bottlefeeding after problems occurred 5 days into breastfeeding.
I'm finding feeding can be frustrating and stressful when really it should be when I'm bonding with baby. I am using Tinnee Tippee variflo teets no.1 but finding we are wasting so much milk due to the endless dribble. We feed her sitting up with her head tilted, but I am going through so many bibs, towels everday.
I would appreciate any advise or suggestions
regards
Wendy

Haven't got any advice but didn't want you to go unanswered. Have you spoken to your HV about this wendy?

My DS is 4mo at the variflow teats mean that milk just dribbles out of his mouth. If recommend just the standard size 1, not variflow.

what problems where you having breastfeeding? Asking because if your baby has a tounge tie it can also cause problems with them bottle feeding.
