Having problems with my baby gulping his formula on first flow avent nipples and also level 1 dr browns nipples. It causes him to have bad gas and spit up a lot. Any suggestions. He’s on enfamil gentlease. It almost sounds like it’s stuck in his throat after he eats. His breathing is really raspy after he eats.
I had to use tommy tippie and I feel like those didn’t drown him and they go from 1-3 so they grow with there mouth and with my daughter I used the even flow she was preemie but I went back in forth with those
The raspy is probably just that babies can’t clear their throat. Formula is very thick and can leave a coating in the throat. Kind of like drinking orange juice.
Does he have reflux or a dairy allergy? My daughter had both of those and really thrived with the tommee tippee bottles and nipples
I don’t think so. My oldest son had both of those as well and it was a nightmare. He screamed during feedings. He doesn’t scream and he doesn’t seem upset or like it hurts when he spits up. It just seems like he’s eating way to fast or something 🤷🏼♀️ the gulping scares me to death.
I’m gonna order some preemie nipples today.
