Choosing baby bottles for infants


New born babies seek more parental support for their feeding. After six to seven months of breastfeeding, the mother may switch to bottle feeding. Choosing the right bottle for babies is challenging.Baby may like few bottles and reject few others. The mother should find the choice of the babies when it comes to bottle. The bottle should replace the warmth they get from breast feeding. 




You should consider the following tips when you are bottle feeding.

The bottle and nipple need to fit the baby's eating style. Baby bottles come with nipples that have slow, medium or fast flows of milk. The slower milk flows are for the younger babies who are encountering their first learning experience-feeding. Some babies are very flexible and will take any nipple if they are hungry while others prefer to stay with what is familiar.

Consider advertising claims that bottles/nipples prevent colic or were clinically tested objectively. 

Realize that no one product is best. All products are generally good, in that they have bottle/nipple systems that have been based on reducing the intake of excessive air that could be uncomfortable for the baby

  • Give baby a chance to adapt to a new bottle. 
  • Don't give up if the baby rejects the bottle on the first feeding.
  • Too many changes of bottle and nipple systems can result in frustration for the mother and baby and be costly.
  • Seek advice from friends, other mothers, or parenting websites for information about bottles. 
  • Also beware of costs when purchasing and changing from one system to another.
