It also is important to make sure feeding times are comfortable and enjoyable for you so that you can provide the caring environment that will help your baby develop. A multitude of choices There are many bottles and nipples on the market. It makes little difference which nipples you use, provided you don't select the overly soft nipples, which are designed for a premature baby, for a full-term baby. Some babies are a bit picky. It may be the way they suck, the size of their mouths or the shape of the roofs of their mouths, but they will make a fuss until you discover the right size nipple for them.
Consistency is important.
Don't keep switching types of nipples. Remember, too, that old nipples can become hard and stiff. If so, it is time to buy new ones. Regardless which nipple you choose, it is important to control the speed with which milk flows from the nipple. Milk flow that is either too slow or too fast can cause your baby to take in too much air, leading to stomach discomfort and the need for frequent burping.
