Question about nuk bottles?

Hi, might be silly, but just got the Nuk teats for my bottle-shy baby. She likes them, but I'm not sure I'm doing t right, flat bit on the roof of the mouth or the tounge?

Think the flat bit goes on the tongue.
Do you see a groove/hole near the base of the teat? That's meant to go at the top i.e just under the nose!

Yep - groove with anti-colic hole goes uppermost. There'll also be a size indicator there - s for small, m formedium etc.

Thank you. Also, Nuk users, I got some of the 6-18 month teats as Dd is 7 months, but they look huge, are they worth using? She did latch onto the 0-6 teat, but it was slow going. She also did well with the trainer cup teat thingo.

Ds has nuk bottles for EBM a few days a week but we'reon the 0-6 medium size as he is only 12wks. In the 0-6 there are subdivisions - so he started on the small and is now on medium. Might be the same in 6-18, if so check if you've got the smallest available.

Dd gulped down a fair bit of milk on the medium size test this morning, then refused it, so I swapped for the training cup one, and she had some more. I think I'll stick to the trainer cup teat, seems to be the biggest hit so far...now, what to do with all the other bottles she's rejected over the last 7 months!
