If you have a baby who is approaching 3 months old, is bottle fed and seems to take forever to eat, you might want to switch to level 2 nipples.
The more my son drank, the longer it took to feed him. I have a 3 year old and work, so my day is busy. I strictly pump and bottle feed him the breast milk using Dr. Brown's standard bottles
. At around 2 1/2 months I switched him to the faster flow level 2 nipples. It took him a day or so to get used to the faster flow, but what a great move it was to switch to a faster flow nipple. He finishes eating much faster now. Before switching to the level 2 nipples, he would also cry and fuss after taking a few sips of milk and it would take a bit to calm him down enough to eat. With the faster flow nipple, he doesn't do that anymore. He is calm after taking a few sips of milk.
Babies go through a growth spurt at 3 months, so if your baby eats slow or cries soon after starting to eat, switching to a faster flow nipple before or around 3 months might be a good idea.
