A couple of weeks ago I saw a bay of about 3-4 weeks latching on to the Avent
nipple beautifully: lips flanged out and resting against the ;id (the part of
the device that closes the teat to the bottle). Good suction and even some
tongue movement apparent underneath the teat. Than I watched the baby latch
onto the breast: sucked in the lower lip, rather shallow latch and mom came
out with a bit of a lipstick-nipple!
Kept on working for quit a while with the 2 of them but couldn't get the baby
to latch onto the breast as good as on the d***d silicone teat!
Got me stumped, that little one.
