Do you find that silicon nipples are preferable for mothers who are doing
both bottle and breastfeeding? Might there be less nipple confusion if
the baby doesn't associate the latex smell with feedings? Or does silicon
have a smell too? I thought it was pretty much odorless. Or does this
matter at all?
I would appreciate your input because I am thinking of recommending that
our moms use only silicon to cut down on nipple confusion.
