What are Baby Bottle Nipples?
The nipple is the most important part of the baby bottle as it performs the function of replacing the mother’s nipple. It is a bottle accessory that is often made of latex rubber or silicone. It can be bought separately or included in a baby bottle. For most babies, it is difficult to change from nipple to “nipple.” One of the reasons that they do not accept it is because of the shape and texture it has. That is why we will tell you how to choose the right nipple for your little one.
Why Should You Buy a Good Baby Bottle Nipple?
Choosing a good baby bottle nipple will help your kid feed comfortably and effectively. Good baby bottle nipples have a flatter shape and adapt to the baby’s palate thus avoiding deformations. Others are physiological and imitate the mother’s nipple.
How to Choose the Best Baby Bottle Nipple?
While choosing baby bottle nipples, you have a choice between different shapes.
- The narrow neck nipple: The traditional narrow neck teat gives you the choice between several flow rates and several sizes of teats, to be adapted according to the baby’s age.
- The physiological nipple: This can have a flat, symmetrical shape that mimics the shape of the nipple. Close to the mother’s breast, it promotes the transition between breastfeeding and bottle feeding. It is also perfectly suited to a baby’s palate.
- Wide necked nipple: There are also the more specific wide-necked nipples. They include the valve teat with an anti-colic or anti-hiccup system. This makes it possible to regulate the air inlet and according to its drilling, the flow of milk. This prevents babies from swallowing air during feedings.
What Features Should You Consider When Buying a Baby Bottle Nipple?
Below are some of the features you should consider while choosing baby bottles:
- Silicone or natural rubber? The natural rubber teats, which are brown, are more flexible and silky, perfect for the baby’s mouth! Also, they are suitable for babies who have difficulty breastfeeding. The faint smell of rubber may surprise you and your baby. However, note that the rubber teat is a natural product. Conversely, silicone nipples are harder. They will therefore be ideal for babies who are a little “greedy”. They require additional breastfeeding effort. These transparent teats allow you to control the flow of milk. They are odorless and resist washing well.
- The flow rate: The flow of the nipple is chosen according to the baby’s sucking rhythm, and the liquid contained in the bottle: Flow 1 or 2 are recommended for a baby between 0-6 months. Flow 3 for a child 6 months and over 18 months.
- Choose nipples with anti-colic technology: The rubber or silicone teats with an anti-colic system, integrate a valve or ridges, which allow regular air circulation in the bottle. This system prevents air from entering the baby’s stomach and thus limits stomach aches.
- The shape of the nipple: Drop nipples are rounded, the most traditionally used and many babies prefer it. Although it can interfere with the formation of the palate. Anatomical nipples have a flatter shape and adapt to the baby’s palate thus avoiding deformations, but this nipple may be more uncomfortable for some babies. The physiological ones imitate the mother’s nipple because it has a more elongated design and roughness that facilitate grip. It is ideal for starting the transition from breast to bottle.
How Much Does a Top-Rated Baby Bottle Nipple Cost?
Cheap baby bottle nipples have a starting price of just $4 and generally don’t exceed $10, depending on the number in the set. Affordable baby bottle nipples have a price range of $10 to $15 and the high-end models are made of natural materials, with anti-colic technology.
Final Verdict
The baby bottle nipples come in different materials, shapes, and different flow rates, that is, the amount of milk they let through, ranging from slow to fast. The type you choose for your baby will determine how well he or she adapts to bottle feeding. It must therefore imitate the mother’s nipples as much as possible in size and feel.
