3-month-old baby bottle nipple?

For 3-month-old babies, "slow flow" (size 0 or 1) bottle nipples are typically used. At this stage, your baby's sucking reflex is still developing; too fast a flow can cause choking risk and overfeeding. Single-hole nipples mimic breast feeding most closely. If your baby becomes fussy during feeding, milk drips from the corner of his mouth, or he coughs, it's a sign the nipple flow is too fast. Conversely, if he spends a long time sucking and gets tired, or he inverts the nipple, you might try moving up one size.
