Dr. Brown's nipples on other bottles? Born Free in particular
Does anyone know if they fit the Born Free bottles? I'm happy with the Born Free, but not sure if the nipple is frustrating my newborn. She is only 10 days old. When I brought her home, I was using the ready to feed nursers that the hospital gave me and she was sucking it down really fast, almost too fast. With the Born Free now, it's total opposite - but I guess it's better since she was spitting up more. I just thought the Dr. Browns nipple might be better, just wasn't sure if it would work. Thanks.

Re: Dr. Brown's nipples on other bottles? Born Free in particular
i am assuming you mean the wide neck bottles, and yes you can interchange the nipple...
the reason she may be having trouble is the flow is too slow for her..
the RTF bottles and nipples at the hospital are med flow....
also i would try the standard size nipples in med (or size 2) flow.
my DD had the same problem.. she didnt like wide neck bottles so we swtich the Dr B standard bottle size 2 nipples

Thanks for the info. Yes, I figured the wide neck bottles since they seem to be similar to the Born Free. I'm afraid to use the level 2 because she is only 10 days old.

i understand the concern.... i had the same one... but if you look at the RTF nipples given to you from at the hospital.. the wholes are bigger then level 2... go figure...
try a standard size bottle as well...
