Customer Reviews

Best option for pumping moms who work
These are the same as the one hole nipples that come with every new Avent bottle. I went back to work only 6 weeks after the birth of my daughter and I believe the unique shape and anti collapse design of this nipple kept her from beconing confused and preferring a bottle.

For moms who nurse, I would not recomend more than the two hole slow flow nipples, even with an older baby. The slow flow rate makes them realize that the faster easier way to get milk is from natures source, your breast! Even with the one hole flow rate, my daughter finishes off a bottle in 10 minutes flat, I don't worry that she needs a faster flow.

The next best thing!
When my daughter was born I planned to strictly breasfeed her for the first month at least. However, complications from jaudice forced us to introduce the bottle on her 5th day of life. The Avent system with the Newborn Nipple allowed us to provide her with both expressed breastmilk and formula supplements with ease. Since then I've tried other bottles & nipples. Nothing compares to the gentle flow of the Avent Nipple which feeds her at just the right pace to avoid gas and spitting up later. We now use nothing but!

Best for Breastfed Babies
I was using the born free bottles with their level 1 nipple. My son has acid reflux and we noticed that sometimes he was almost choking on the milk as it was coming out of the bottle. When I returned to work, my mom thought the milk was coming out too fast when she was feeding him and that was why he was fussy on it, so I bought two of these and tried them the next day-- HUGE difference, no fussiness. When I compared the streams of the two nipples, the avent is MUCH slower which is great for breastfed babies because they suck a lot harder. Also, he can take a rest and make the flow completely STOP like he can when he is breastfeeding. Also, the top of the nipple is more flat like an actual breast. These nipples fit perfectly on the born free bottles (I like that they are glass). My son and I are very happy campers.
