IN REPLY TO: sucking problems on bottle
AUTHOR: mollysgranny
My son had the same problem. He would suck so hard that he wore himself out and would drink hardly anything. We eventually changed nipples on the bottle to the next bigger size. You may want to try that. Also, they have lots of different styles of bottle nipples, she may like a different shape than the one you are currently using. It took us some experimenting, but we finally got the right one. We had to watch him closely at first so he didn't drink too much too fast, and ocasionally he would gag, at first, but he got the hang of it and eating is a much more pleasant experience for him. Hope this helps.
