Think CHINs

C Close - tuck their whole body in towards you, ensure the arms are open and wrapped around the breast rather than the arms crossed infront of their body

H Head free - nothing touching their head, check your hand placement behind their neck

I In Line - head in line with their body - no twists 

N Nose to nipple - start with their chin tucked in touching the breast and their nose opposite the nipple before waiting for a wide mouth to guide them on to latch at the 

S Sustainable - when your baby is latched and sucking you can lean back and make yourself comfortable

This helps to avoid bottle preference, overfeeding, excess wind etc.   Essentially paced bottle feeding means that the baby is in a more upright position, holding the bottle horizontally allowing the baby to control the flow of milk with active sucking. The teat will only be half filled with milk, but they don't actually take in more air, it's the fast paced bottle feeding that causes air intake.
