Infant Addiction to Karo Syrup / Nipple Confusion

Infant Addiction to Karo Syrup / Nipple Confusion

My DS who is 2 months now was having some trouble having a BM, and the ped nurse recommended putting 1-2 tsp of corn syrup into 2 oz of water.  Well, I tried that, and he didn't care too much for it, so instead I tried putting a little less than 1 tsp into 2.5+ oz of breastmilk to help him out becuase he was SO mad that he hadn't pooped. Well... so we were doing that with bottles and now he wants a bottle and won't nurse.  In addition to that, he gets mad when there is not Karo syrup in it.  I am not sure that I fully want to go back to nursing and might try pumping and feeding him with a bottle but....

Any advice?
