Looking for nipple suggestions....

[JLiebCamm]

I need suggestions for a new type of nipple to try with my son. After struggling to find a way to give him EBM when I returned to work because he wouldn't take a bottle, the lacatation consultant recommended a Haberman feeder (which does not allow the EBM to drip out unless I squeeze the nipple or he sucks). He does great with the Haberman feeder, but they cost over $20 and I don't want to have to buy multiples of it. When the babysitter tried to switch him back to the Avent bottles (with the newborn nipple) he repeatedly choked on the EBM as if it were coming out too fast. Does anyone know of a nipple that has a very slow flow/drip that might better suit him? Thanks,

The NUK, new-born size, is a very slow flow. We have been using this (I had to go back to work when DS was 6 weeks old). The LCs (yes, plural) I met with recommended this generally.
