These are the same as the one hole nipples that come with every new Avent bottle. I went back to work only 6 weeks after the birth of my daughter and I believe the unique shape and anti collapse design of this nipple kept her from beconing confused and preferring a bottle.

For moms who nurse, I would not recomend more than the two hole slow flow nipples, even with an older baby. The slow flow rate makes them realize that the faster easier way to get milk is from natures source, your breast! Even with the one hole flow rate, my daughter finishes off a bottle in 10 minutes flat, I don't worry that she needs a faster flow.

When my daughter was born I planned to strictly breasfeed her for the first month at least. However, complications from jaudice forced us to introduce the bottle on her 5th day of life. The Avent system with the Newborn Nipple allowed us to provide her with both expressed breastmilk and formula supplements with ease. Since then I've tried other bottles & nipples. Nothing compares to the gentle flow of the Avent Nipple which feeds her at just the right pace to avoid gas and spitting up later. We now use nothing but!

I was using the born free bottles with their level 1 nipple. My son has acid reflux and we noticed that sometimes he was almost choking on the milk as it was coming out of the bottle. When I returned to work, my mom thought the milk was coming out too fast when she was feeding him and that was why he was fussy on it, so I bought two of these and tried them the next day-- HUGE difference, no fussiness. When I compared the streams of the two nipples, the avent is MUCH slower which is great for breastfed babies because they suck a lot harder. Also, he can take a rest and make the flow completely STOP like he can when he is breastfeeding. Also, the top of the nipple is more flat like an actual breast. These nipples fit perfectly on the born free bottles (I like that they are glass). My son and I are very happy campers.

For a Newborn Nipple it flows very fast. Specially for a BRAND that prompts its self as being close to breastfeeding which this is nothing close to. Go with NUK bottles they are great and iv used many kinds to find one that I/ my son liked.

I am an exclusive bfing mom, so when it got close to time to go back to work I started working with baby to take his milk from a bottle. I have always used the Avent brand. The nipple is wide enough for baby as to hopefully prevent nipple confusion. But when I tried giving my son a bottle he sucked a few seconds then started to cough. I started to play with the nipple by pointing it sideways and I barely squeezed it and the milk came out quite effortlessly. I also turned it upside down and instead of a slow drip is was a stream. After waiting a few days I tried my son again on the bottle with the other nipple and the same problem arose the milk was just coming out too fast. I ended having to use a different brand entirely. Now though at almost four months my little guy taked this nipple like a champ.

I have a 4.5 month old and these newborn nipples are too fast for my breastfed baby. He guzzles a 4 ounce bottle in less than 5 minutes, which is HORRIBLE for a breastfed baby. He doesnt know when hes full and ends up spitting up a ton after feeds. He also ends up with an upset tummy and is extra gassy because of them. Since this is the slowest flow Avent offers, Ive had to look for new bottles. I wish they made slower flow nipples because I really do like the bottles.

We introduced a bottle to my son when he was 3 weeks old. This is the first and only bottle he has tried. He took to the Avent nipple right away. Since he is breastfed, I am still using the #1 flow nipple in order for a slower flow. He has no issues drinking from it even still.

Daughter is 8 months old and still breastfed. While at daycare she takes bottles of pumped milk. These slow flow nipples are the best. She never had an issue with nipple confusion. We started bottles around 2 months. I like the durable feel of these nipples as many others feel too thin and babies can easily push them into the bottle, but avent does not do that. I highly reccomend.

We brought these nipples based on all the raving reviews and write up's online. However our newborn is now here and wasn't putting on enough weight. Our pediatrician told us these are the worse brand of bottles on the market for newborns and shouldn't be used until the baby is at least 5 months old. The reason for this is because the nipple is too large for a newborn to latch on to and they're unable to get enough. We are now using the Medela nipples instead and he's feeding so much better.

for newborns to ensure your newborn keeps up his sucking strength so that he's efficient at breastfeeding in addition to bottle feeding
