Standing in the bottle aisle can feel⦠overwhelming šµāš«
Hereās what actually matters (and what doesnāt):
š¼ Flow > ābreast-likeā marketing
A appropriate sized ni**le is usually the most important factor, even for older babies
š¼ Watch the baby, not the age range
Coughing, gulping, leaking, or frustration are signs the flow or shape may not be a good fit.
š¼ There is no perfect bottle
No bottle truly mimics breastfeeding and thatās okay!Responsive, paced feeding matters far more.
š¼ You donāt need to buy 6 different brands
Start with one, see how your baby responds, and adjust if needed.
