FAQs
What age is the Size 3 Fast Flow teat suitable for?
The Size 3 Fast Flow teat is generally recommended for babies who are older or have developed a stronger suck. It's best to observe your baby's feeding cues; if they seem frustrated with slower flows or are taking too long to feed, a fast flow might be appropriate. Consult your pediatrician or health professional for personalized advice.
How often should I replace MAM teats?
It is recommended to replace teats every 1-2 months for hygiene and safety, or sooner if you notice any signs of wear, tear, discoloration, or damage (such as cracks, stickiness, or thinning of the silicone). Regular inspection is key.
Is the MAM Silk Teat material safe for my baby?
Yes, MAM Silk Teats are made from high-quality silicone that is 100% BPA-free and BPS-free, ensuring they are safe for your baby's use. The material is durable and designed for regular sterilization.
Can I use this teat with non-MAM bottles?
The MAM Ultivent Teat is specifically designed for optimal fit and performance with MAM feeding bottles. While some other brands may have similar neck sizes, proper fit and anti-colic functionality cannot be guaranteed with non-MAM bottles.
How do I ensure the Ultivent system works correctly?
The Ultivent system is integrated into the teat design to allow air to enter the bottle from the bottom, preventing a vacuum and ensuring a smooth flow. Make sure the teat is clean and free from any blockages, and ensure it's securely fitted to the bottle ring and bottle.
Troubleshooting
Teat flow seems too fast or too slow for my baby.
Ensure you have the correct teat size for your baby's age and developmental stage. While this is a fast-flow teat (Size 3), some babies may need a slower flow (Size 1 or 2) or a different type of flow depending on their feeding rhythm. Observe your baby for signs of discomfort or inefficiency.
Baby refuses the teat.
The MAM Silk Teat is known for high acceptance, but if refusal occurs, try different feeding positions or times. Ensure the milk temperature is optimal. If transitioning from breastfeeding, give the baby time to adjust. Sometimes, a slightly different flow rate (slower or faster) might be preferred by the baby.
Teat is leaking or dripping.
Check that the teat is correctly and securely assembled into the bottle ring and that the ring is tightly screwed onto the bottle. Ensure the teat is not damaged or torn. Also, verify that the anti-colic valve (if applicable on your bottle) is clear and functioning properly.
Teat appears cloudy or discolored after sterilization.
This can sometimes happen with silicone due to mineral deposits from water, especially with repeated boiling or hard water. Ensure you are following sterilization instructions correctly. You can try cleaning with a vinegar solution periodically to remove mineral buildup, but always rinse thoroughly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care
Sterilization: Always sterilize the teat before first use and after every subsequent use. This can be done via:
Boiling: Submerge in boiling water for 5 minutes.
Steam Sterilizer: Use a standard electric or microwave steam sterilizer according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Cold Water Sterilization: Use a sterilizing solution as per the product's instructions.
Cleaning: Wash thoroughly with warm soapy water immediately after each use. Use a soft bottle brush to ensure all milk residue is removed from inside the teat.
Inspection: Regularly inspect the teat for any signs of wear, tear, or damage. Discard and replace immediately if you notice any cracks, stickiness, or thinning of the silicone.
