Nina brings up a good point. I ONLY use a bottle with a baby who is
already getting them due to breastfeeding problems before the mom sought
my help. I compare the baby's performance at breast and bottle, and
teach moms who are using bottles to encourage a wide gape (nice open
mouth) on the bottle, and ensure that the baby is being paced
appropriately. Babies with feeding problems are particularly vulnerable
to being overwhelmed by flow when bottlefed.
