Feeding help. please help
I had my daughter on October 24th and we had bought the nuk bottles to start out with. They were the bottles with the special nipple ever supposed to mimic an actual breast. Well she was taking 45 minutes to over an hour just to eat 2 ounces and then we move to 3 oz it was taking her even longer up to an hour and a half to eat. So I decided to try a regular cheap bottle from Walmart and she seem to have taken to it quite well. However now her feedings only last anywhere between 10 and 15 minutes and I'm worried that that's not a long enough feeding time her doctor said it should take anywhere between 20 and 40 minutes for her to eat. She seems much happier with the regular bottle then she did with the nuk bottles she was getting really frustrated with the neck bottles almost like she wasn't getting milk out of the nipple. Since we switch bottles she doesn't have any extra gas she burps well and always seems content but I'm just worried because her doctor said it should take her 20 to 40 minutes to eat and it only takes about 15

Yep. Just the 3 oz right now. I know that if you pay Ttention to baby that they'll tell you if your doing something they don't like. Just my Dr made me feel less secure about what I was doing with her feedings
I will also add that the bottles I bought of the cheap brand are the same flow as the nuk bottles but I think because the brands are different is the reason why the milk comes out a tiny bit faster than the nuk bottles.
@pp Ive been doing pace feeding I believe. I make sure she's upright and that the nipple isn't completely filled with milk. And I also burp twice during our feeding like the pediatrician recommended and everything. It's almost like she just likes to eat fast or something . I guess I just wanna make sure I'm not hurting her which I know sounds silly but my son is 3 so I don't remember any of this
Look up pace feeding. It should take about 5 minutes per oz.
I should probably add that if she eats too fast then she's at risk for over feeding. If she eats too slow, like you mentioned, she'll get frustrated.
I used Philips vent air bottles. For the first 10 months i only used the slow nipple. Mostly because i was bf but once i weaned her i went to a medium nipple.
