PARENT TIP
Pay attention to your baby’s cues. If your baby is getting frustrated, the flow may be too slow and you’ll want to try a nipple the next size up. If your baby is choking on the milk, it could be coming too fast and you may need to go down to a slower-flow nipple.
PARENT TIP
Don’t give up if your baby rejects the pacifier at first. Look for different shapes and sizes until you find one your baby likes.
