I just saw your weight gain post and I wanted you to see this 
When you saw the LC did you do a weighed feeding (I think that's what it's called) to see how much he was taking each feeding? I had a somewhat lazy eater (only took 1 oz and then fell asleep). When I saw an LC at home and she noticed that he only took 1 oz she gave me a nipple shield to try so he would feel it more in his mouth and continue to suck and he took another oz after putting that on. Just a thought. GL!
Edited for clarity.

We did do a weighed feeding. And then I bought a homescale so that I could do weighed feedings at home. No suggestion of a nipple shield though.
Thankfully, he went on a binge this weekend. He ate 9 oz in one feeding Friday night and gained 8 oz. from Thursday morning to this morning.
If we start lagging again, I will check into a nipple shield though. For the most part we're past the falling asleep while nursing thing. Now I think the problem is conversion to a bottle at daycare and being distracted at daycare so he doesn't want to eat a lot.
