My LO is 5 months and we still use slow flow nipples because she can't handle fast flow yet. Anyone else experience this? I know babies won't just turn 3 months and be ready for the fast ones lol! Just curious.

I did not change the nipples until lo was 5 months .  we went from stage 1 to stage 2 then verialble.. i was not going to by stage three.  We use born free.. the veriable are great... baby takes what they want... my lo was ok with stage 2 but he loves food so they were still a bit slow for him..  Give it some more time.  your lo is doing just fine with the slow ones for now.

I always liked the variable flow nipples from playtex. On the box it stated from birth to 6 months but I used them up to a year and then we transitioned to a sippy cup. I liked them because the milk would not just flow out, the baby actually has to suck. I don't think it matters in the end, just stick to what works. :)
