bottle type

[GossipGirly]

lo has been feeding from tt bottles, since 3 weeks old when i stopped bfing, we bought a starter pack and teats are slow flow (0-3month), she takes forvever feeding and pulls my hands in frustration of trying to get milk out, i think she is still trying to use her tongue to milk the bottle like she did on breast. she doesnt seem to like advent or medela bottles she likes the size of the tt teet, i bought vari flow(0-3m) tt teets but she just screams with these..., any recommendations/suggestions on which bottle/teats to use??

second the NUK recommendation; the milk flows really easily (be it BM or FM) and the baby can easily control it with their tongue as well.

You may actually find that she will be ok with vari flow aswell if you've started her on a thicker milk!!! My LO went onto SMA staydown which is thicker than aptamil and it struggled coming out of 1 and 2 teats!! Lol. So she was happy with vari flow but now she's back on aptamil she drowned herself with the vari flow lol so she's now on no 2!!! Random a???
Woop woop we may end up ttc/bump buddies . Xxx

oo so i should try variflow again as she didnt like them and seemed to struggle x

If I was you babe I would try all the sizes and just see what she's happiest with!!! It will be different with a comfort milk than a normal one as they are thicker! And the. As and when you take her offthe comfort milk and back onto a normal milk (if you do) you will probably have to do the whole process again hehe xxx
