Baby bottle nipple size

Did you know when it was time to change nipple sizes for your LO? My LO gets fussy when she’s eating sometimes and we can’t figure out why. It’s like she forgets she’s eating or gets frustrated.

Depends on if they’re eating formula or breast milk. Our lactation consultant advised us not to go up in size for breast milk

I’m going to go up a size every 3 months 🤷‍♀️

@Jillian she’s doing both! She gets equally frustrated with both on a size 1 nipple but she’s only 6 weeks

When to up a size is when your LO will start smacking the bottle, not keeping the nipple in there mouth very long, or just taking awhile to eat. (That’s what my pediatrician said)

Have you tried changing the brand of the bottles?

@Kierra she’s used tommee tippee, dr browns and now Phillips avent and she seems to like Phillips the best

Same progression we’ve done!

If she’s getting fussy it could mean she is frustrated and needs a faster flow.

@Elena I’ll give it a try to see if that helps!

Highly recommend her videos on TikTok!

@Elena thank you!
