How to choose a bottle and nipple suitable for newborn babies

Glass is suitable for newborn babies, with good safety and heat resistance, and it is not easy to hide evil and accommodate evil, and it is easy to clean. Disadvantages are fragile, the bottle is heavy, and it is inconvenient for the baby to hold it. So it is suitable for adults to feed.

The nipple is an important part of the bottle, which largely determines whether the baby will accept the bottle. From the morphological point of view, there are mainly two categories: round head and thumb. Choosing a nipple that conforms to the shape of mommy's nipple can promote the baby's saliva secretion, make the baby suck harder, and narrow the distance between the baby and the mother. There are two kinds of materials: rubber and silicone. Latex is soft and has a short service life. It needs to be replaced in about 2-3 weeks. Usually, this nipple is suitable for newborns or BBs with relatively weak sucking ability. Silicone is harder, suitable for babies over 3 months, and the service cycle is generally changed every 2 months.

The size of the nipple is to suit babies of different ages. For example, NUK's pacifiers are divided into 1 (newborn type) and 2 (growth type), which are suitable for babies of 0-6 months and 6- 18 months respectively. The pore size is suitable for liquids with different flows and viscosities. For example, the hole of NUK nipple is divided into three sizes: S, M and L. The small round hole of S flows slowly and is suitable for feeding pure water and breast milk. The round hole in m is of medium flow, which is suitable for feeding; L large round holes or cross holes have fast flow speed and are suitable for feeding sticky foods such as rice noodles. Therefore, when purchasing a nipple, mothers can first choose the size of the nipple according to the baby's age, and then choose the size of the hole according to the use of the nipple.
