She can suck down a bottle super fast with a level 2 it's taking forever for him to finish bottle and he's collapsing the nipple a bit.

Does anyone know any nipple the is similar in flow and texture? My son won't take any other and I can't afford to keep buying disposables.

With yds we started with preemie nipples because.
With ods we went straight to level 3 nipples because they are so fast flow in the nicu.
Both of my guys transitioned from nicu nipples to dr browns.

I'm EBFing, but pump so DH can give LO a bottle sometimes. If you wash your bottles and nipples by hand, what type of soap do you use? I always wash by hand, but sometimes it seems like the nipples dry cloudy. I'm not sure if they aren't getting clean...

I think your nipples aren't supposed to touch the insides of the shield, but I may be wrong - this was nearly with a lactation consultant,....
Are damaging your nipples, they may be too small? I know Medea had sizes, and the small was tiny.

Have small grazes on both nipples - yes they are only small but they hurt! Have worked on our latch with an LC, things are getting better - but the grazes won't heal.

And heal, and it's safe for baby.
