I agree. I never could understand those fast flowing bottle nipples but moms
buy them cause they say for 3-6 months. Also a lot of day care personnel
wouldn't like the slow flow!! Imagine that!! Mary Ann

I do suggest that a mother continue to use the slower nipples for as long
as baby is feeding with bottles. It is a gift to him to drink calmly
(including breathing) and to honor his natural appestat. Fast eating is not
good for any of us.
