Okay as you know G decided a week ago that she no longer likes bottles...nice huh? Anyway we currently use avent and I have tried a different size nipple, but it really does not make that much of a difference so I am turning to my Momma's.....

    K likes Medela bottles.  When she decided she didn't like those anymore I bought a First Year's Breastflow, it is supposed to mimic the breast. 

    Someone suggested to go up a size on the nipples, so they don't have to work as hard to get the milk out.  But I have no idea if this would have worked.  And I was kind of scared when they said that she might not ever take the breast again.

    I tried going up a nipple size but it really did not work....she still makes the yucky face and squirms around, and plays with the bottle in her mouth...

    Caroline used pretty much any bottle I stuck in her mouth.  When I was pumping I mainly used Medela.  When I started on formula, I preferred Avent because the wider mouth.  It made it easier for mixing the formula.

    She is just now getting off the bottle and still prefers the size 2 nipple.  She hates the 3 and 4.  She would probably like it even better if I put the 1 back on.

    This A-man had really bad gas.  We started out with the drop ins, but they  made him too gassy.  So we switched to Dr. Brown (around 2 months) and life has been much better!

    I use evenflow glass bottles & dr. Brown's glass bottles. My medela pump fit on both, so that's why Istarted w/ them.

    we used the playtex drop-ins.  lactation consultant said to start with the playtex long nipple slow flow.  although at G's age I'm sure medium flow would be fine cause he was two weeks when she recommended that.  he was solely on the bottle until 6 weeks before I got him to latch and did fine.

    I literally have about a dozen different kinds, and she finally settled on the playtex orthodontic nipple. Second place would be nuk. Can you get her one to match her paci? B likes orthodontic pacis, and didn't like the round nipples. You could also try one that is not silicone.
