Changing nipple flow
My DS is 2 months, when did you change the nipple from slow to medium? We went for his 2 month checkup today and I forgot to ask if we can move to a medium flow nipple.
Thanks so much!

Re: Changing nipple flow
we just did it a few weeks ago, DS is 4 months. he had no problem with the slower flow, but i figured it was probably time to change him
he had no problems with the switch either

Re: Changing nipple flow
I think I changed it around 3 months. DD was sucking too hard on the nipple and it was collapsing so it was time to move up to a medium flow.

Re: Changing nipple flow
My DD is 5.5 months and we still haven't changed it. She takes 2 or 3 bottles a day and is BF the rest of the time. I was afraid that if we went to faster flow, she'd find *my* flow annoyingly slow. With the slow flow she can still finish a 6 oz bottle in under 10 minutes, though, so she's a powerful chugger.

Re: Changing nipple flow
I switched to the medium flow around 4 months. I think you can at 3, but I was BFing and didn't want her to wean early.

Re: Changing nipple flow
Never changed it. I dont know if I will. I read you dont need to. She's mostly BF, and a few bottles here or there.

Re: Changing nipple flow
Thanks ladies! After reading your comments I don't think I am going to change for now, he eats the bottle quick and the nipple doesn't get inverted when he eats. Thanks again!
