Second Nature Nipples (2pk)

The Second Nature Nipple is the ONLY nipple that truly works like Mom's breast. This has many benefits including:

Lets your baby control the flow

Reduces swallowed air and colic

Helps avoid nipple confusion

Lets your baby control the flow... The Second Nature Nipple looks different from other nipples, because it is designed to be more like Mom’s breast, with multiple small holes for the milk to flow through. When your baby latches on and suckles on a Second Nature Nipple, it flexes and opens up the many small holes, which allows milk to flow. The stronger your baby suckles, the more the milk flow increases, so that your baby controls the flow just like at the breast!

Reduces swallowed air and colic... When your baby is breastfeeding, she frequently pauses to rest. The Second Nature Nipple is the only nipple that effectively allows your baby to do the same thing while feeding from a bottle. When your baby stops suckling the holes close and immediately the flow stops, allowing your baby as much time as she needs before starting the flow again by suckling, just like at the breast! The free-flow nipples of other bottles continue to flow, forcing your baby to simply keep swallowing to avoid choking. Too much too fast overwhelms your baby’s sensitive digestive system and can cause colic. Second Nature’s natural venting further reduces gas and colic by preventing your baby from swallowing excess air.

Helps avoid nipple confusion... Nipple confusion refers to the frustration that occurs when your baby, after having been bottle fed, does not want to return to the breast because she prefers the easy free-flow of a bottle. However, with the Second Nature Nipple, your baby has to work the same way as when she is breastfeeding. This allows your baby to easily switch between the breast and the Second Nature Nipple. Therefore, nipple confusion is not an issue for the Second Nature baby!

There is no need for different flow rate nipples as baby grows — use the Second Nature Nipple from birth through one year.
