I am formula feeding my lo using the mam bottles but I’m fixing he’s spilling/ dribbling milk during his feeds, I wondered if anyone else has had this problem with these bottles as I’m wondering if it’s worth me trying a different make?

Those bottles are too easy to get milk out, so I’m sure that’s why he is dribbling. He must have a strong suck!
I use the philips avent natural bottles. You can buy different levels of flow. I use a flow 2 bottle, so my baby has to suck similarly to when she is on the boob.

thank you, he’s on the size 1 teat and still did it with size 0 so wondering if it’s the shape of the teats maybe

I give my LO an expressed bottle once a day using in the mam with size 0 teat, haven’t had that issue. Maybe try pace feeding, he’s upright and bottle at 90 degree angle? You can Google it for images.

On the kendamums group if you have Facebook, a lot of people mention about having an oral assessment done as some babies have hidden tongue/lip ties etc or a teat that’s not suited to them causing a bad latch! I changed my little girls and she’s so much better xx
