They seem to work well for most and my boy has always struggled with wind and sick so I got these after stopping breastfeeding at 5 weeks.. he's now 4 months and been up and down with feeding due to suspected CMPA and reflux. He has had times when feeding really well but it's gone backwards, again!
Issue with the mam bottles is I'm constantly having to tip them up as the milk just pours out for a while until it drips, the problem is he likes a warm bottle so when I put it down to burp him it's like the pressure builds up again and have to tip it til it stops pouring again, it's just a faff!
Lately he has been really fussing and letting the teat slip out his mouth, chomping on it, struggle to get his wind up so more sick.. he dribbles loads too. I know this sounds like the flow is too fast but he's been on size 2 for a while now and was fine to begin with after he got used to them, so I thought maybe he needs a faster flow but the size 3 literally just pours out for ages, it does eventually drip but by the time I give it to him it's pouring again and chokes him! He's just not at all happy when feeding and I don't know what to do.
I've tried dr browns, tommee tippee and ones that came with my pump but he doesn't seem to like the shape of the teats at all so I've stuck with mam but I'm getting so stressed with it :(
We thought it had all improved so much then he started spitting up a lot again after he had his second lot of jabs 3 weeks ago, and it's just gone downhill from there.. I can see him losing suction and taking in so much air/dribbling milk, I don't know if it's bottle aversion? As he has fed ok before. And the issue with the bottles spraying won't be helping plus he doesn't seem happy with size 2 or 3 now!
