nfant - Slow Flow Nipples

We talked to nurses and clinicians at NICUs and pediatric hospitals across the country who work daily with infants with feeding challenges. The biggest problem they faced? Lack of consistency in flow rates in the nipples produced and sold to consumers by top brands today. 

Many parents may be surprised to learn that there is no standard measurement for a slow flow nipple. One brand’s newborn nipple may be faster or slower than the next. In fact, clinicians told our team that they’ve even found varying slow rates in nipples manufactured by the same brand. This inconsistency can exacerbate or even lead to infant feeding problems.

• nfant® Control Flow Nipples are the most consistent in every flow category
• nfant® Extra Slow Nipple is the slowest nipple on the market
• nfant® Slow Flow Nipple is ranked as the slowest flow in its category
• nfant® Standard Flow Nipple is significantly slower than any of the competitors in this category
• nfant® No Flow Nipple is the only no-flow trainer available

• Try a slower flow rate nipple if you see gulping, coughing, choking or milk dripping from your baby’s mouth.
• If your baby finished a bottle quickly (10 minutes or less) and does not seem satisfied, consider moving down a level.

Our No Flow Trainer is like our other nipples but without a hole. It is designed to be used with infants transitioning from tube feeding to bottle feeding so babies can safely practice sucking.

• Taking too long (30 minutes or more) to finish a bottle
• Refusing the bottle
• Baby seems frustrated
