How do I sterilize the nipples?

Can I use these nipples with other brands of bottles?

What is the difference between Level 1 and Level 2 nipples?

How do I know if my baby is ready for Level 2 nipples?

Are these nipples dishwasher safe?

What if the nipple is damaged?

Troubleshooting
Nipple collapses during feeding.
Ensure the vent is properly aligned and clean. If the problem persists, the vent may be damaged, and you will need to replace the nipple.
Baby is taking in too much air.
Make sure the nipple is correctly sealed to the bottle and that the vent is not blocked. Check the baby's latch and feeding position.

The flow rate might be too slow. Try the Level 2 nipple if your baby is 3 months or older.

Make sure the nipple is properly attached and sealed to the bottle. Check for any cracks or damage to the nipple.
