My LO (12wks old) has been using the MAM bottles since he was 4wks old. 2 weeks ago we switched him to the number 2 nipple for the bottle and initially it went fine. The last few days while he eats he is just letting it run out of both sides of his mouth and it's making quite a mess.
Should I try to switch him to a different bottle? Any recommendations which one I should try?

Hmm. Strange. I have no particular reason to say this other than the fact that we liked them, but I loved Dr Brown bottles.

I'd go back to the slower nipple before trying a new bottle. Or maybe hold LO more upright and the bottle more horizontal.

I second dr. Browns. It's what our nicu used and we've had a good experience with them. That being said - when the twins started letting it dribble, we moved up nipples and it worked perfect! I think hey we're tired of sucking and just letting it drip into their mouth, so the next size up worked well and they started feeding normally again.

@ldh112: @Regberadaisy: Ok thanks! Maybe I should just try the 1's again. I guess I thought since the 2's said they were for 2months and up I had to use them.
