Babies: 3 - 6 Months

Do you change the nipple size according to age?

NB-4 months I have used the same nipples & today when I got a new bottle I decided to get the 3-6 month size (which is stage 2). Have you changed sizes?

Re: Do you change the nipple size according to age?

  • i have only seen stages, like 1 or 2 not ages really - no DS is a fast drinker and if i got him the faster flow nipple, i think he would choke.

  • I am at the size 3 (3 month) nipple with the Avent bottles. We just made the switch cause DS wasn't getting enough and now he drinks like a champ, lol.

  • we just tried a fast flow nipple because DS wasn't eating from a bottle as well as he used to with DH.  I don't even have any idea what age they say to use the fast flow nipple for.  But, he did great and we'll probably stick with it!

  • I changed at 3 months because he was eating really slow and I was going back to work and didn't want the nanny to spend half her day feeding him.
  • I am trying to decide what to do about this...he is starting to collapse the stage 2 Avent Nipples but drank to fast and choked when I tried a "variable speed" nipple... so I am not sure when to move to the "stage 3" one...

    I haven't changed.  She is still using level one Dr. Brown nipples and she seems to be eating just fine.
