FAQs

How often should I replace the teats?

It is generally recommended to replace the teats every 6-8 weeks, or sooner if they show signs of wear, damage, or milk residue that is hard to remove.

Can I use these bottles without the vent system?

Yes, you can use the bottles without the vent system as your baby grows. This can be beneficial as the baby's feeding habits change.

Are the bottles microwave-safe?

Yes, the bottles are microwave-safe, but be cautious when heating with liquid inside. Follow microwave heating guidelines carefully.

How do I know which teat flow rate is right for my baby?

Start with the Level 1 teat (included) for newborns. Increase the flow rate as your baby grows and their feeding needs change. Watch for signs of frustration or choking during feeding.

Can I use any type of bottle warmer with these bottles?

Yes, you can use most bottle warmers with these bottles. Ensure that the bottle warmer is designed for glass bottles.

How do I prevent milk from leaking?

Make sure the bottle is tightly sealed and that all parts are correctly aligned. Be careful not to overfill the bottle.

How do I remove the vent?

The vent is designed to be removed and inserted, allowing for versatile use. It is a good idea to refer to the instructions to remove it correctly.

Troubleshooting

Bottle leaks

Ensure all parts are correctly assembled, particularly the vent system. Check the teat for proper fit and alignment. Do not overtighten the cap.

Baby is still fussy and gassy

Make sure the vent system is correctly inserted. Experiment with different teat flow rates to find what suits your baby best. Consult with your pediatrician.

Difficulty in cleaning the vent system

Use the provided cleaning brush to reach all parts. Soak the vent system in warm, soapy water for easier cleaning. Rinse thoroughly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Assembly: Wash all parts before first use. Assemble the bottle, ensuring the vent system is correctly placed. The vent consists of several parts and is essential for the bottle's anti-colic function. Refer to the included instructions for detailed assembly steps.
  2. Compatibility: This bottle is compatible with Dr. Brown's teats. The included Level 1 teat is suitable for newborns. Other teat flow rates are available separately for older babies.

  4. Sterilization: Sterilize all bottle components before the first use and regularly thereafter. You can use a sterilizer, boil the parts for 5 minutes, or use a microwave sterilizing bag. Always allow the parts to cool before handling.
  5. Bottle Components: Always check the teats and other components for wear and tear. Replace them if you notice any damage or after the recommended period to ensure safety and hygiene.
