Babies: 3 - 6 Months

Are you supposed to change bottle nipple sizes if you EBF?

She occasionally gets a bottle of EBM and I feel like she's getting frustrated with the Size 1 nipples.. I thought I read somewhere that you're not supposed to change sizes if you BF though.. although I might be remembering incorrectly..

  • nope, that's right. You're supposed to stay on slow flow. Otherwise they might get used to the faster flow and then get frustrated with the slower flow of BF.

    W/ DD1 I was able to switch to the medium flow nipples with no issues, but by that point I was ok with weaning if it came to it. I think that was around 7 months.
