Philips Avent Responsive Natural Soother with Extra Slow Flow - 2 Pieces

Set of 2 responsive Natural teats with very slow flow, ideal for newborns and the youngest babies. The innovative design with the J-slit ensures that milk only flows out during your baby's active sucking - exactly like breastfeeding. When the baby pauses to breathe or swallow, the milk stops flowing.

The anti-colic valve limits the amount of air entering your baby's tummy, minimising the risk of colic and discomfort. Compatible with all Philips Avent bottles in the Natural range. Made of soft silicone without bisphenol A, in eco-friendly paper packaging.

Natural feeding rhythm with a responsive teat

The responsive Natural teat with extra-slow flow is designed to perfectly mimic breastfeeding. Its unique J-slit design ensures that milk only flows when your baby actively sucks. When your baby pauses to swallow or breathe, no milk flows, just like when breastfeeding.

This innovative technology allows your baby to control the pace of feeding by sucking, swallowing and breathing at their own natural rhythm. This not only helps prevent spit-up, but also makes it much easier to combine breastfeeding with bottle feeding, which is especially important for mums who are returning to work or need to use a bottle from time to time.

The very slow flow is specially adapted to the needs of newborns, whose sucking reflex and coordination of sucking, swallowing and breathing are still developing. It ensures an optimal amount of milk, reducing the risk of choking or excessive milk leakage.

Intended use:

Responsive Natural Teats with extra slow flow are designed for:

• Newborns and very young babies (from birth).
• Children who are alternately breastfed and bottle-fed.
• Infants suffering from colic, gas or discomfort during feeding.
• Parents who want to replace worn-out teats in Philips Avent Natural bottles.
• Mums who want their baby to control the feeding pace.
• Children who spit up or choke on standard teats.

How to use:

1. Sterilise the teat before first use.
2. Make sure the teat is compatible with your Philips Avent Natural bottle.
3. Attach the teat to the bottle cap, making sure it is properly seated.
4. Screw the cap with the teat onto the bottle.
5. When feeding your baby, hold the bottle at an angle to ensure the teat is filled with milk.

Remember that your baby may need a few tries to get used to the responsive teat – this is a natural adaptation process. Watch your baby's reactions – if they have difficulty feeding or seem frustrated, consider switching to a teat with a higher flow rate. After each use, wash the teat thoroughly with warm water and a mild detergent.

How to choose the right teat flow:

• Switch to a lower flow if milk leaks from your baby's mouth or your baby chokes.
• Switch to a larger flow if your baby plays with the teat, seems frustrated or feeding takes too long.
• Observe your baby's behaviour during feeding – this is the best indicator of whether the flow is right.
• Consult a specialist if feeding problems persist despite changing the flow.
