FAQs

What age is this MAM Teat Size 3 (Fast Flow) suitable for?

This teat is suitable for babies aged 4 months and older, designed to accommodate their developing feeding skills and faster drinking pace.

Does this teat fit all baby bottles?

No, these MAM Teats are specifically designed to fit all MAM brand baby bottles only. They may not be compatible with other bottle brands.

How often should I replace the teats?

It is recommended to replace teats every 1-2 months for hygiene and safety. You should also replace them immediately if you notice any signs of wear, damage, discoloration, or stickiness.

How do I clean and sterilize these teats?

After each use, rinse them with water and wash with warm soapy water. For sterilization, you can boil them for 5 minutes, use a steam sterilizer, a microwave sterilizer, or a cold water sterilization solution. Always refer to the care instructions for detailed steps.

What is SkinSoft silicone and why is it important?

SkinSoft silicone is a specially developed material that mimics the feel of a mother's skin, offering a natural and familiar sensation to the baby. This helps babies accept the bottle more easily and can facilitate a smoother transition between breastfeeding and bottle feeding.

Can I use this fast flow teat for a younger baby?

Using a fast flow teat for a younger baby (under 4 months) is generally not recommended as it could lead to them drinking too quickly, potentially causing discomfort, choking, or excessive gas. Always use the appropriate flow rate for your baby's age and developmental stage.

Troubleshooting

My baby is struggling with the fast flow, even though they are 4+ months.

While Size 3 is a fast flow for 4+ months, every baby is different. Observe if your baby is gulping, coughing, or spilling excessively. You might consider trying a Size 2 (medium flow) teat temporarily to see if a slightly slower flow is more comfortable for them at this stage. Consult with a pediatrician or lactation consultant if concerns persist.

The teat seems to be collapsing or sucking in during feeding.

This often indicates a vacuum forming in the bottle. Ensure the anti-colic valve (if your MAM bottle has one) is correctly assembled and clean. Also, check the teat for any blockages in the vent hole or flow hole. If the problem persists, the teat might be worn out and need replacement. Ensure the collar is not overtightened on the bottle.

Milk is leaking from around the teat or bottle collar.

First, ensure the teat is correctly and securely pulled through the neck ring. Next, check that the bottle collar is screwed on tightly but not excessively, and that there are no gaps. Also, inspect the silicone teat and sealing ring (if applicable) for any tears or damage that could cause leaks. Replace any damaged components.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Natural Feel: SkinSoft silicone promotes easy acceptance and comfortable feeding.
  • Appropriate Flow for Age: Fast flow supports older babies' feeding efficiency.
  • Breast-to-Bottle Transition: Aids in a smooth switch for babies who are both breastfed and bottle-fed.
  • Wide Compatibility: Fits all MAM brand baby bottles.
  • Value Pack: A pack of four ensures convenience and reduces the need for frequent washing.

Cons

  • Flow Rate Observation: While 'fast flow' is generally for 4+ months, some babies may still prefer a slower flow initially, requiring careful monitoring.
  • Brand Specific: Primarily designed for MAM brand bottles, which may limit interchangeability with other bottle brands.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Inspect: Before first use and after each cleaning, visually inspect the teat for any signs of damage, tears, or weakness. Discard immediately if any damage is found.
  2. Assemble: Gently push the base of the teat onto the neck ring of your MAM baby bottle until it is securely fitted. Ensure the teat is fully seated and not twisted.
  3. Fill: Prepare your baby's formula or breast milk according to instructions and fill the bottle.
  4. Attach: Screw the assembled neck ring with teat securely onto the bottle, ensuring a tight seal to prevent leaks.

Compatibility

  • MAM Baby Bottles: These teats are specifically designed to fit all MAM baby bottles. This ensures a perfect seal and optimal performance within the MAM feeding system.
  • Age Recommendation: Suitable for babies 4 months and older due to the fast flow rate.

Care

Cleaning: For your baby's safety and hygiene, always clean the teat immediately after each use.

  1. Rinse: Rinse thoroughly under running water to remove any milk residue.
  2. Wash: Wash in warm soapy water using a soft brush or sponge. Ensure all milk residue is removed, paying close attention to the flow hole.
  3. Sterilize: Sterilize the teats before each use for the first 6 months of your baby's life, and regularly thereafter.
  • Boiling: Place teats in boiling water for 5 minutes. Do not let them touch the bottom or sides of the pot to prevent damage.
  • Steam Sterilizer: Use a steam sterilizer according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Microwave Sterilizer: Use a microwave sterilizer or sterilizing bags according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Cold Water Sterilization: Use a cold water sterilization solution following product guidelines.
  1. Dry & Store: After sterilization, allow teats to cool and dry thoroughly in a clean, hygienic area. Store in a clean, dry, and covered container.

Maintenance:

  • Replace teats every 1-2 months for hygiene and safety, or sooner if they show any signs of wear, damage, or stickiness.
  • Avoid storing teats in direct sunlight or near a source of heat, as this can weaken the silicone.
