we bought Avent for him. but seems it's not suitable for him. cos it have milk flowing out from his mouth & choking.

Not knowing what's wrong, we went to consult pd. He told us it's becos the teat is too big for him (teat was for new born). So we change it to pigeon S teat. It went on very well.

now we slowly switch to Avent again cos don't want to waste the $ we spent on their bottles & teats. Now hes using both pigeon (s) & avent (no. 1) teats...

I'm using Dr Brown bottles since my boy is 2mth old. I personally found that it's good as it prevent colic with the design of the bottle. My boy is 8+ mth now and is still using...but not many places sell Dr Brown bottles. So far I know that KKH has a shop which has more choice of size and accessories of Dr Brown.

hi,

For mummy using nuk bottles, for Nuk teat, do we feed bb with the hole facing up or down?
if the hole facing upwards, the air system will be facing upwards too. or should it be facing downwards?

i feed with the hole facing upwards, but my SO feed facing downwards. who is right?

:err:

Hi Junkee n Xue

At 1st my dd uses avent bottle to drink oso same like Junkee's ds i suspect it's the avent teats too hard n need alot of strength to suck for newborns then i chng to NUK teats n oso use NUK premium bottle. For the premium bottle it's oso leaks sometimes n oso have difficulty in opening the bottle when put hot water in it.

Still i think Avent bottle is the best... For newborns i recommend NUK teats.....

invest in big bottles...cos my boi outgrew his small bottle within 2mths....
i onli have 2 small bottles for plain water....6 big bottles for feeding EBM n expressing :)
it is not really good for new borns who only drinks like 3oz/4oz to use big bottles for 8oz. cos more air will go into the tummy causing colic.

my boy is using AVENT milk bottles since birth. the teats he's using is still for 0-3 months (or is it 3-6 months? cant rem liao. :p).

tried using those variable teats (those w I, II and III). but he dun like. :( any1 of u having this prob? he takes 20-25min to drink 240ml. so long!!!

wanted to intro a bit of rice cereal into his milk so it can last him longer thru nite. recently, he wakes up at 5+am for milk (last feed at 10+pm). but the cereal gets stuck in those 0-3 months teats.

mrs puppy> u can get those teats for 6m....den subsequently change to suit their age - coz teats get dirty after too long oso.
