Question about the Avent natural bottles

babyfromgod · Jan 19th, 2013, 13:47 PM

I am sure my anti colic valve isn't working on my bottles. I only just brought them a couple of days ago. Any idea how to get it to work? It only seems to bubble when he lets go of the bottle and releases the vaccum rather than consistently bubbling while he is drinking

Sometimes the valve bit in the new teats is s bit stuck together. If you give it a good poking with your finger when washing it should resolve, at least withing a couple of days. Frustrating I know, I had this issue when I bought some new teats! Good luck xx

where is the valve you speak of? my LO does the same, its like a vaccum and she has to let go to release the pressure. got some mam bottles today which seem to really reduce that happening (still does a bit though)

Have just tried poking the valve when washing the bottles and it worked. The valves are at the side of the teat x

ahh i see them now, so are they supposed to move when baby is drinking?

Are you also pulling the teats through properly so that the outside of the teat is flush with the white plastic bit? Don't mean to be insulting, but my sons used these for 5mths and my oh still can't do it!
