When do you replace the nipples on your bottles from slow flow to a higher flow?
DS is almost 5 months, weighs 16 pounds and is eating about 30 OZ expressed breastmilk a day.
Sometimes he just seems to be annoyed at the bottle and I'm wondering whether he's tired of breastmilk :) or just needs a higher flow. Also he sucks so hard the nipples becomes flat from the vacuum really fast. On the other hand, he is a spitter with acid reflux and I don't want him to have too much and gag on it...
any advice is welcome.
