I apologize if  Lactnet is not the appropriate place to ask this question, but
I searched the archives  and didn't exactly find what I was looking for.
Working Mom's that  are my clients have had good luck using the Munchkin  slow
flow nipple (preemie, 0-3 mo. size) that fits the playtex disposable bottle.
The babies don't have problems switching between Mom and bottle, but now the
WalMart stores in our area ( the only places that carried them), are no longer
carrying them.  Parents could order them direct from Munchkin but I doubt they
will go to the trouble.  I know breastmilk is best direct from the source but
for those that can't do that 100% of the time   are there any nipples out
there (in the USA) that make the  baby  open wide like at the breast, and also
have a slower flow?   Some babies will take anything and switch back and forth
with  no problem but those aren't  the ones I'm worried about.  Bye the way ,
I pleaded with the WalMart store manager but to no avail.  They probably
weren't making enough profit on Munchkin items.  Thanks in advance for your
help.  Also,  C. Brussel , if you're out there I did not get your paper on
formula feeding and I've misplaced your note where I jotted your e-mail
address .  I'm sorry this was so long.  Judy in West Georgia, USA where  the
April showers started a day early.
