Spitting Bottled BM

in November 2014 Moms
Noob spits out breastmilk from his bottle when we feed him... like, not spit up, but spit out as a fountain!
We've tried different temperatures (better luck with hotter), different nipples (LC recommended Calma), different positions etc etc.
He still spits out half of what we feed with the bottle. He only gets maybe 2 bottles a day, otherwise he's breastfed, so I'm not worried about him not getting the nutrition or even me missing on some sleep... but it *kills* me to see that liquid gold go to waste!
Any suggestions or tips are very very appreciated!

    Is he latching properly on the bottle? His mouth should look the same as if he were on a boob. I find that my LO will initially only suck on the tip of the bottle so I pull it out until he gets the proper latch.

    Have you checked out paced bottle feeding? Maybe some of those techniques will help! (:
