At what age is the M teat best used?

The M teat is typically suitable for babies around 3–4 months old, or when you notice that feeds with the S teat are taking too long or causing frustration. Always follow your baby’s cues to decide when to move up a size.

Does changing to an M teat increase the risk of colic or choking?

If introduced too early, the faster flow of an M teat may cause gulping or swallowing more air. However, the Peristaltic Plus design includes an Air Ventilation System that helps reduce trapped air and supports smoother feeding. Monitor your baby’s response to ensure the flow is right.

How many M teats should I keep on hand?

It’s recommended to keep at least two M teats on rotation—one in use and one being cleaned or sterilised. This ensures you always have a spare ready and can maintain hygiene during daily feeding routines.

Q: What makes the M size different from S in the Peristaltic Plus range?

The M size teat has a cross-cut or Y-cut opening that provides a faster flow compared to the S size round-cut. It allows more milk to pass through, making it ideal for babies who have progressed beyond the newborn stage and need a quicker flow.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What makes the M size different from S in the Peristaltic Plus range?

The M size typically has a cross-cut or Y-cut (faster flow) than the S round-cut, letting more milk through when the baby’s sucking strength increases. It’s ideal for babies who have moved past the newborn stage and need a faster flow.

At what age is M best used?

Usually around 3-4 months, or when baby shows signs that the S flow is no longer sufficient—feed times are very long, baby seems frustrated, takes very long to finish usual amounts. Use baby’s cues.

Does changing to an M teat increase risk of colic or choking?

If you switch too early, yes there might be increased gulping or swallowing air. But the Peristaltic Plus teat includes an Air Ventilation System to help reduce trapped air. Make sure you supervise, choose appropriate flow, and observe the baby’s response.

How many M teats to have on hand?

It's good to have at least two on rotation: one in use, one cleaned/sterilised/drying. This ensures you can always feed even while cleaning or sterilising.
