Avent teat size 2 anyone? (also in baby)

Evening all,

Sara is 5 wks tomorrow and I was reading the avent blurb on our bottles and it suggests moving up to the next teat size around 4 wks, was just wondering if anyone had moved/tried these yet?

I know each LO is different and I'll prob just have to experiment.

Interestingly though I was speaking to my SIL today and she said that if you don't move to the next size teat it can make your LO more colicy...

Will look forward to hearing what you all are doing

    Hi Liz

    We've been using the size 2 for about a week and having no problems. I thought I'd try switching because she seemed to be taking in a lot of air when sucking and she was dribbling more milk than before down the sides of her mouth when drinking which I read was a sign she was working too hard on sucking and forgetting to swallow.

    Thanks Liz, I've upped to size two and Sara is loving it. She's taking more at feeds, they're taking less time and she is def less colicy! - happy mummy!!
