Teat question

[wantmoresleep]

I have recently swapped over from BF to FF and have a quick question

We use the TT:CTN bottles and have the variflow teats. When she feeds the milk runs down from her mouth and she makes such a mess. Do I have the right teat..is it the teat? Or is it just her??

Silly question sorry but..clueless!!

I don't use them but I think that variflow teats are suitable form birth and allow baby to get as much milk as they need depending on how hard they can suck so can be used at any age? Correct me if I'm wrong somebody. My LO gets what I call a 'milk beard' all the time when he feeds and it drips down his chin so I wouldn't worry!

Evie's a milk dribbler too lol! Occasionally a bit of milk will squirt from the corner of her mouth too
I dont think it's anything to do with the teats tbh, it's something that Evie has always done, thru every stage of teat so I think it's just down to her general "suck" heh!

I tried the variflow teats but she sucked so hard like her first stage teats the milk went everywhere!!! Went back to first stage teat and lucky I had one sterilized at the time!
