Dr browns bottles

[jenny82]

Does anyone use these??

In the packs I bought there were spare teats. I only started using these this evening as I thought that the older ones were a bit clogged. If anyone has used these, are the spare teats a level up??

I can't remember how quick the flow was when we started using the initial teats, but my LO is clearing 6oz in just over ten minutes!! I'm worrying now in case it is too quick for his wee tummy :/

I have dr browns bottles but i dont know about the levels hun. As long as lo isnt coughing or spluttering then the teats should be fine x

Did u get the starter pack with 2 4oz bottles and an 8oz? If so then yes, the spare teats are different levels, i think 2 of them are level 2, 1 level 3 and 1 level 4

The level number is on the bottom of the teat. You have to look closely.

I switched Elle to L2 at 6 weeks. It took her about a day to adjust.

Ohhh thank you!

I did get the starter pack initially and then some more of the bigger bottles but I just threw all the spare stuff in a container. Must check the teat numbers first thing in the morning oops!!

I did exactly the same thing! I couldn't figure out why Brady was coughing and spluttering at some feeds, then noticed when I was sterilising them that he must have had the Level 3 or 4 bless him. I changed him to Level 2 when he was about 8 weeks I think. It made quite a bit of difference to his wind, I think they must take more in when the Level 1 gets too slow for them.

I use Dr Browns and I totally forgot about the levels until reading this. My LO is 12 weeks now. Should I switch him to level 2 now? oops
