Teat Sizes

Hi All,

I have a little boy who has just turned 5 weeks old. He is on the Tommy Tippee Anti Colic bottles but he sucks the bottle that hard the teat is always folding in. He is on the slow flow teat at the minute but I am thinking of changing this to the medium flow.

Does anybody know if he is still too young for the medium flow teats?

Thanks

Hello

The teat sizes are by recommendation. I had to go up a size with my newborn DD as she was sucking so hard so quickly it would fold inwards.

Took for the first few feeds for her to get used to it but after that no issues. Maybe go for the veriflow? If that's what it was called?

I just went up to size 2 with mam bottles Dd is 5 weeks but i think it might be to soon. She is getting very fussy because of it. Not sure if this is normal.
