Anyone know of a bottle with a firmer nipple?

So my Anna STILL won't take a bottle.  From anyone.  She doesn't scream bloody murder anymore though so at least we have that going for us.  Well, my mother-in-law seems to think Anna is having trouble with the nipple, like it's too soft.  I almost dismissed the idea but Anna does have a funny latch when I BF.  I've gotten used to it now.  Anyway, we are using the Playtex nurser drop in bottles, not sure the nipple is made out of but it's really soft.  Any suggestions for a firmer nipple??  TIA!!

Re: Anyone know of a bottle with a firmer nipple?

  • To me, the cheapie Evenflo bottles had the firmest nipples.  Those were the only ones my boys would take.

  • Did you get any of the premade formula samples? It comes with a rubber nipple that's pretty solid.

  • We went through a bunch of bottles before having success with the Breastflow brand. My girl is a committed nurser and was willing to starve at daycare to avoid the bottle and she will even take one from me.

  • The Avent ones are pretty firm.  Also, make sure you get a nipple that is a slow flow if you are BF.

    DD has a hard time with the silicone nipples-and we actually have been buying the Enfamil disposable nipples that we used in the hospital off of Amazon.  They work great because they are a little bit firmer.

    Which bottles do these nipples fit on? If I remember right, they are kinda small.

    You can use them on any that are the regular width-so we use ours on the Dr. Brown's (just without the inner part) because DS can use them with the regular nipples.  

    We tried EVERY nipple out there it seems-and as much as we hate using the disposable ones, we just hand wash them and watch for any issues with them.
