    Question about teet/nipple size!!

    Morning ladies

    Quick question.

    Miss Z has been fully formula fed from about 3 months. No problems at all

    However, now that she is nearly 8 months old, she STILL won't take to the next size up from the 0 - 6 month teet/nipple!

    I keep trying and she just gags and spits it all out!

    So am still using the 0 - 6 month teet/nipple.

    Is that okay? Or should I try something else?

    Just keep bubs on the smaller teat, as long as they are drinking enough still, there is no problem.

    I don't think there is a problem with staying on the smaller size. When someone EBM feeds whilst still BF it's recommended that they still use the smallest teat size. As Misty says as long as your daughter is drinking enough it probably doesn't matter.
