Your baby’s age, duration of feeding time and drinking amount will be your guide for choosing the best nipple hole size. Babies of the same age will have different requirements. So select the best size according to the development of your baby. When your baby is taking longer times to finish drinking, even if ventilation is working well or the nipple keeps collapsing, please upgrade to the next size.
