Are you wanting to nurse more or trying to switch to bottle? If your trying to nurse more I took Fenegreek and I help a lot. You take like four or five of them a day until you smell like maple syrup. Helped my milk a lot.

Let him suck for about 5 minutes each side to up your production then give him the finger. Or you can try putting corn syrup on the nipple of the bottle.

Thanks everyone. I have tried the fenugreek, didn't notice any more production. I am trying to begin the process of switching him to bottle. He took the bottle fine for 2 months so I could have a break now and then, and one day decided he was done with it. So for 2 1/2 weeks I've been trying every nipple, every way, but he just refuses. I have tried some agave nectar on the nipple, that's a no-go.
He will just nurse even if there is no milk coming out but that makes me pretty sore, so I can't do that often.

After a loooooong fight last night he finally took a couple ounces out of the bottle, but it was hardly worth the work.
