Expressing and Teat Advice

[CountingDown]

Hi Ladies

Just a quick question, hope someone can help.

I have been expressing for the last few days with my Medela swing punp (love this )and trying Olivia with the odd bottle of ebm.

At the moment we are using the tt closer to nature bottles and teats but Olivia seems to be frustrated by these. Just by chance we were bought an avent airflex bottle and my o/h tried an ounce with the airflex teat and she took it fine!!!!

The tt teats are slow flow but as my breast milk flows quite quickly, do you think the flow from the tt teats could be causing the frustration????

Possibly - just change to the Avent!

I've always used slow flow, because that's how I am when Niamh feeds. I would go with what is closest to her natural feeding. I only ever use size 1 teats, and rarely size 2 and Niamh is 5 months this month.
