A healthy, full-term baby can generally adapt to any bottle. To make your choice, you can take several features into consideration: the size of the bottle, the type of nipple, the different flow rates on offer, ease of cleaning and price. No one model is preferable to another. So you can choose according to your preferences.
Bottle manufacturers also claim that their products have a number of advantages. For example, some bottles prevent the baby from swallowing air, thus reducing gas and bloating. Others make the transition from breast to bottle easier.
There are a variety of teats on the market. Some differ in size, shape and flexibility. There's no single best choice, but there may be a teat that's better suited to your baby's sucking action. You may need to try a few models to find the one your baby prefers. If your baby tends to have more difficulty sucking, choose a softer teat.
For newborns, start with a slow-flow teat. It will be easier for him to learn to drink with a slower-flowing teat. If the flow is too fast, your baby may choke or let milk escape from his mouth.
If you notice your baby making a lot of noise when he swallows, or if he tends to take big gulps, consider choosing a slower-flowing teat. As he grows, he'll appreciate a faster flow. The important thing is to follow his needs and rhythm.
Remember to check the condition of the teat regularly. If it has small tears, or if it changes appearance, it's a good idea to throw it away and use a new one. As a general rule, we recommend replacing nipples every 2 or 3 months of use, according to the manufacturer's recommendations.
Feeding your baby is a privileged moment that allows you and dad to share in the sweetness and closeness of the moment. The feeding bottle is an indispensable accessory for baby's meals.
All baby bottle models meet baby's needs, whether in terms of comfort during feeding,ease in the mouth or grip. You'll be perfectly equipped to make your baby's feedings unforgettable, with complete peace of mind.
The size of the bottle should be adapted to your baby's age:
Small bottles are ideal for the first few weeks, especially for water or small quantities of breast milk.
An ergonomic bottle with an easy grip is ideal for parents and babies learning to hold their own bottles.
Some bottles have built-in anti-colic systems, designed to reduce air ingress during feeding. These systems can be particularly useful for babies with a tendency to bloat or reflux.
The nipple is an essential element, as it directly influences your baby's sucking action and comfort. Here are some points to consider
Material
Shape
Flow
It's important to monitor your baby's feeding behaviour. If the milk flows too quickly or too slowly, adjust the teat flow accordingly.
To ensure optimum hygiene, clean bottles immediately after each use with a suitable brush. Sterilize them regularly, especially during your baby's first months of life.
Check nipples regularly and replace them at the first signs of wear (cracks, deformation). In general, nipples should be changed every 2 to 3 months to avoid any risk of ingesting particles.
