Any bottle nipple brands that you find to truly be slow-flow? We are using a few different ones, but they all seem to flow extremely quickly. Thanks!
Milk Bank makes great bottles! The Stage 1 (and 2) are good for slow flow. The best part of their system is the thing that sucks out the air (like a wine saver), which is especially great if you are using breastmilk in them. They are good for colic, etc with the valve system and don't leak.
We used Playtex slow-flow nipples that went with the Playtex drop-ins.
My 12 month old was 3 months early, and he had serious latching problems. He still can't handle fast flow nipples. We still use stage 1 or 2 only. The ones that we found work the best are the old fashioned Gerber Nuk latex nipples.
The Evenflo ones were so slow, my daughter would get upset!
Evenflo classic slow flow. I only ever used evenflo slow flow. Even when he was 11 months old, we used them. He didn't do well with any other flow.
Ditto the Playtex slow-flow that go with the drop-ins.
We used Tommy Tippee for the first six months. Then switched to Nuk.
It's good you are mixing it up to see what brand fits best!
Good luck.
We used Medela. You might also want to check out brestflow or tommy tippee. We never increased to any other flow, which is not required for a breastfed baby.
Dr. Brown's newborn flow.
I always just used the old-school round nipples... I had to buy the medium flow ones for my DD as a newborn, because the slow flow were waaay to slow for her.
