Feeding Made Simple - Flipbook - Page 25
In a good feed, with a good 昀氀ow, you should
expect to see:
→ Steady sucking
→ Natural pauses
→ Relaxed breathing through the nose
You should not see:
→ Gulping
→ Choking
→ Squirming
→ Constant stopping
→ Pulling away from the bottle
When parents tell me:
“Bottle feeding always feels stressful”
I immediately question if they are using
the right nipple flow for their baby.
Changing the nipple flow is often the
quickest, the easiest, and best way to
improve feeding.
