The Extra-Slow (XS) teat from Élhée is a very low-flow teat specially designed for tiny babies for whom the speed of the Slow Flow (S) teat is still too fast during their first weeks of life. This is their slowest flow, guaranteeing a safe and constant flow, giving baby a better opportunity to breathe and swallow in complete serenity. (This teat isn't just for premature babies or babies with feeding difficulties. If you find that the flow rate of the S teat is too fast, the XS teat is the solution.)
The Slow flow (S) teats are ideal for newborns (+0 months) and breast-fed babies. Its low flow rate and its extra soft silicone avoid the risk of breast/nipple confusion. It has been developed to offer sensations similar to breastfeeding and adapts ideally to the shape of the baby's palate and contributes to his good oral development. Its anti-colic system reduces air absorption and facilitates digestion for toddlers.
The Medium Flow (M) teats are ideal for infants from birth (0-24 months). Made of extra soft silicone, it has been developed to offer sensations similar to breastfeeding. It adapts ideally to the shape of the baby's palate and contributes to its good oral development. Its anti-colic system reduces air absorption and facilitates digestion for toddlers.
The Fast Flow (L) (3-24 months) is especially recommended when using thickened formula infant milk (anti-regurgitation or anti-reflux milk) to facilitate the digestive comfort of babies. The anti-colic valve on the nipple helps reduce the risk of regurgitation. Combined with the flexibility of the semi-rigid silicone bottle, it ensures an optimized air flow, so that the incoming air can be extracted by the baby's sucking mechanism during feeding, without effort or fatigue.
