One Sunday I was sitting in church watching a mother sitting in front of me
bottle feeding her baby.  She was using an Avent nipple, and I do remember
thinking, "Wow, look at those lips perfectly flanged around the wide base."
So, I am one person who did see it actually happening.  She was a breast
feeder who had quit, though. :-(

That's one photo that I'd like to see, because it defies what I often find
in my clients that use that bottle.  

 

I can very easily go on a Cuban-tempered rant about this specific subject,
so if you want my considered, professional tirade ::cough:: I mean, my
clinical assessment email me privately, LOL.

 

In short, the picture you have just described (which I have not seen) is the
exact OPPOSITE of what I see in many of my troubled (either sore or not-

latching) clients.  Baby is most decidedly NOT taking that bottle with lips
flanged around the broad base.  I only wish....
