Help! 3 Month Old Won't Take the bottle...going Back to Work Soon!

I got such great responses last time I posted. I have a breastfed baby who is a gourmet! Any ideas, specifically brands/types of nipples/bottles people have had success with. Basically we introduced the bottle at 4 weeks (Breastflow by the First Years) and she sucked it right down. I waited a week before I gave it to her again and since then it's been a real struggle. She HAS taken it a few times (from me and her Dad) but I can count the number of times on one hand. I'm going back to work (part-time) next week and I'm really worried...

Trouble with Avent Bottles?

My daughter is mostly breastfed but gets 1-2 bottles a day. I've been using the Avent bottles with #3 and #4 nipples (I felt like she got frustrated with #2), but it seems like she can't get a good seal with the nipple and the formula ends up all over her bib/clothes...totally soaking her. I think part of the problem is that she chews on the nipple or plays with it. Has anyone else had this problem? Should I just switch back to the smaller nipple? or try different bottles? She is almost 7 months so she should be on the #4. I hate to...
