(can you be anymore original with your user name? *wink*)</p> <p>you didn't do anything wrong. when i first switched to level 3 nipples, the milk was shooting out as well and like you, i thought i did something wrong. when baby_toki first took the bottle using a level 3 nipple, i could tell the milk was coming out too fast (because she literally took 8oz in 3 minutes) but she got used to it. </p> <p>have you tried different bottles by any chance? i know different babies prefer different bottles but baby_toki did not like playtext drop-ins. it was convenient for me but she didn't like it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fast-nipple#post-868 Thu, 22 Sep 2011 19:14:58 +0000 AQL1211 868@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sorry, this is a bit of a dumb question! </p> <p>I use playtex drop ins when feeding my baby, with fast nipples. I use both silicone and latex (both are fast). the milk shoots out of the nipple in a constant stream when using the silicone nipple. is this normal? i thought it was air pressure but no matter what I do, it just shoots out in a constant stream. this does not happen when using the latex nipple. in fact, the latex nipple seems to have a much slower flow than the silicone nipple. i might go as far as to say it's a little too slow for my 9 month old, while the shooting stream on the silicone nipple is just WAY too fast. </p> <p>the nipples are also new, so it's not because they are worn out. just wanted to know if anyone else using playtex drop ins have experienced this. i am wondering if i am setting up the bottle wrong or something? </p>
