Default Bottle Feeding Problems

Have some questions for you that have or do bottle feed newborn puppies. I have been using Esbilac puppy milk on the babies when momma first could not nurse. Now she is nursing some but does not have enough to nurse all the time. I just bought a new can and they have had 1 feeding from it and now they won't take it. They gag and spit the bottle out. I tried different nipples, made a new batch and still nothing. The formula smells fine but I still have crying babies. Is there something else that I can use on them? Will switching them to something else hurt them? Could it just be they don't like the taste of it anymore? They just turned 2 weeks so they are not done nursing yet.

Any help you can offer would be great. I already have a call into the vet.
