Bottle feed milk leaking

Does anyone experience milk leaking from the bottle when feeding baby? The milk is like leaking from both sides of the baby mouth, and the bib always end up soaked in milk..wonder if there is anyway to reduce this?

Yes to changing bottle & teat, it shouldn't be leaking. You can try medela Calma bottle - the milk won't come out unless baby sucks

You might have to change the teat, it might be too big hence the milk is flowing out faster than what your baby can suck.

Check the teat size - whether it is appropriate for baby’s age and if the teat is connected properly to the bottle :)

Use a different brand teat. When I use advent, it was also like that but when I use pigeon, it's okay.... :)

Reduce teats size or check if the teats is broken due to washing. The flow is too fast for the baby

Maybe you could change the teat brand or size, pigeon brand is very good

Its the smallest teat size..but still leaking everywhere :(
