What weabout it
Description
These are extra nipples for Philips AVENT Natural bottles. Petal-like shapes at the wide base of the nipple provide more give, without collapsing, to create a soft and flexible touch. A more natural feel leads to less fussing when babies have to switch between bottle and breast. And a built-in valve prevents wee ones from sucking down a belly full of air, which can lead to spit-up and burping (sometimes both at the same time) as well as colic.
NOTE: Philips AVENT also makes a product called Classic bottles, and they are not compatible with the Natural nipples.
When newborns first start bottle feeding, pediatricians recommend using a âslow flowâ nipple (also called Level 1), so that the baby doesnât get too much milk at once. Also if you are switching back and forth from breast to bottle, slow flow nipples can prevent babies from getting too attached to the bottle. Most bottles come with âslow flowâ or newborn stage nipples.
Itâs nice to add some faster flow nipples to your baby registry because your baby will need them when they start drinking faster. Rather than buying whole new bottles, you can start using faster nipples in your existing bottles.

April 4, 2019This bottle/nipple system is specifically designed to work with breastfed babies, and it did for ours! The nipple stages (flow) seemed pretty accurate.

February 14, 2017They are super easy to change out with the bottles and clear very easily. You can also reuse the packaging to store the nipples you're not using. My baby is breastfed and she has no problem with these when we give her a bottle. Easy to read sizing allows you to quickly see what size nipple your using.
