Are these nipples a good bit smaller than regular bottle nipples? I need something small for a puppy. Thanks!!

The nipples are great for pre-mature baby. However, I presume puppies require larger size since they require larger sums of liquid intakes.

I think they are, but you may try your local dollar store for a smaller inexpensive nipple!

They're standard sized nipples. What makes them preemie nipples is that they have a smaller hole so that a smaller amount of liquid flows through at a time.

I used these as feeding bottles for the first 3 weeks because they ate the perfect size. I used the wide based nipples and the calmas and they work perfectly. Now that my baby is eating 4 oz per feeding I'm trying to figure out how full I can fill these to store and freeze milk in.

Yes! The standard nipples (any level) will fit the standard Dr. Brown bottles. My 11 month old son was a preemie and the Dr. Brown brand was recommended to us by the NICU. I love this bottle system! Best wishes to you :)

I would say that depends on the brand. As for these bottles I believe the nipple is slow flow. Since I'm breastfeeding and pumping, I like that these bottles have a very slow flow. Other bottles make my son gulp, even with the slowest nipple. These make him work for it, like at the breast.

I have tried to use these as bottles once and the nipple and nipple ring ''fit" but since you are not able to use the blue little pipe and the tan color insert to the pipe the milk spills out (sorry i do not know their exact names). Hope this info helps.

I want to say yes! I am not 100% sure but it seemed me as they were. Because when u bought level 1 nipples from another brand it would pour less than with this nipple. I used it for my new born he was fine with it he got used to it with out a problem. They are so convenient!

Baby A is breastfed and still is now she's 10 mos. She used to take bottle and now preferred the hoot. I tried using this bottle, she doesn't really care much about it. But, I have a friend whose baby is breastfed and tool some from this bottle. It really depends on the baby and the shape of your nipple. This one has a pretty big nipple in my opinion. I had better luck with the medela nipple, which is smaller, more to my size.

My baby would not take the tommee tippee bottles but this is the only nipple she would take. She is 4 mo & uses the medium flow & isn't gassy @ all! I would recommend this nipple especially for a baby who won't take any other bottle. If you're looking for something that specifically helps reduce gas maybe Dr Brown's (just from what I have heard, baby wouldn't take those either). I use the mOmma nipples w Avent bottles so it fits in the bottle warmer

I'm afraid I'm not much help to you. I used these nipples to feed a orphan puppy. I did have it on a 4 oz baby bottle (if that helps).

When I have bought the 2 oz ready-made bottles from any place, I have never had the nipples included. I was given some from the hospital before we left and I bought some of my own as well. I am not sure if this is the case with these bottles, but I imagine it would say if the nipples were inlcuded.

Nipple is faster flow on the bigger bottles. I got the smaller bottles better for slow flow bigger bottle once child is drinking more oz. My 8 month old still drinks out of 4 oz bottles she is mostly breastfed and almost never drinks more then 4 oz.

These nipples fit onto any medela bottles. No special bottles needed. My little one likes these alot.

Both sizes come with medium flow nipples which are fine to use with newborns. This is my third baby and I will tell you that these are by far the best bottles I've ever used. Good luck Mama!

I am not sure, but I think that is correct at least when I purchased them which has been about 3 years ago. I still continued to use the slow flow nipples and have never really noticed much difference though but I generally nurse my son and they feed him bottles at daycare.

They are ok for small dogs, I use these on my imaal terrier. Also, I used them on my german shepherd puppy but she was already quite big. Lastly, most puppies don't need their nails cut, just filed down.

Honestly I didn't like the nipples from medela. I used the pump and avent bottles. Don't think medela 's are good for newborns, case they are too soft.
