My newborn is breast fed and express bottle fed. He’s got the MAM bottles, but he seems to actually gulp when feeding and then is really uncomfortable and gassy after. Can anyone please recommend bottles that will help with this?

We use the MAM bottles and did with our first too. Try pace feeding to get him to slow down, both of mine gulped a lot drinking from the bottle, but I guess that's because they're used to working hard to get the milk at the breast. They won't like pace feeding but it definitely helps

Have a look at pace feeding but also I’d check what size teet it is. MAM tend to have a lot start with size 1 but you can get size 0 for ultra slow which will probably be better

I've been using the tommee tippee natural start ones and my babygirl has taken to them really well and is almost never gassy

i’d try getting a slower teat size and if that doesn’t work then maybe trying a different brand. we used mam and liked them so can’t suggest any other brands

We use MAM and Tommy Tippee Natural start and our little boy gets on really well with both. Check your teet size and use a size 0 which should help ☺️

Thank you to everyone for your advice, I’ve checked the teet size which is 0. Going to try pace feeding today x
