Every baby is different but I throughly recommend giving these NUK bottles (Currently only £2.50) a try.
Our second baby is 2 months old and he struggled with the breast and bottle because he had a hard to detect tongue tie, a high palette and a few other medical issues and due to all of this he was sadly forgetting how to breastfeed but we persevered.
With the tongue tie sorted our baby did get better but a mixture of breast milk, breast milk in a bottle and formula continued to make it difficult for him to figure out what to do.
During this time we saw so many helpful practitioners and we learnt SO much about the shape of breast nipples and baby’s mouth and now it’s clear to me that this shape of nipple is definitely the best.
Briefly:
1. The Medela Calma bottle was our first choice simply because during the stressful times it was readily available with the express machine. It was good, the unusual teat shape helped to ensure our baby continued to make an effort whilst sucking (to get enough milk) as opposed to believing if he just pretended he’d still get milk - otherwise he would struggle when he was on the breast.
2. Tommee Tippee nipples - We had these left over from baby one. They worked great, far easier to put formula scoops in, but we could tell he was still sucking on the tip of the nipple which isn’t what it’s like on an actual breast. We also only had size 1 nipples and rather than spend £3 on getting a couple for variflow nipples I thought we might as give another bottle a try to see if it improves the speed of his intake.
3. So we bought the NUK bottle and we know our little one loves it. He takes so much more comfortable drinking from it, he drinks with far more gusto and he drinks more because he doesn’t get tired as he did with the other bottles. The latex teat is soft but we did buy silicon ones as backup just in case he was allergic to latex. We also bought the ‘large’ just in case the ‘medium’ was frustrating him.
Back to where I was. Definitely give the NUK bottles a try first.
