Overview
Dr. Brown's Preemie Flow bottle is a 4-ounce bottle from the Options+ Anti-Colic line, sized for newborn feeding and weighing about half a pound. It uses the preemie-specific flow nipple built into Dr. Brown's internal venting system.
Dr. Brown's Options+ line is built around an internal vent system meant to reduce the air a baby swallows while feeding, and the preemie flow nipple is the slowest flow rate in that lineup, intended for newborns and premature babies who feed most easily at a very slow pace.
- 4 oz capacity
- Preemie flow nipple
- Options+ anti-colic venting
- Sized for newborn age range
Who it's for
Parents of newborns or premature babies who need the slowest available flow rate and want Dr. Brown's anti-colic venting system. Parents of older infants ready for a faster flow will need to move up to a different nipple level as the baby grows.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Preemie-level flow for newborn feeding pace
- Anti-colic internal venting system
- 4-ounce size matches early feeding volumes
- Sold as a single bottle, not a multi-pack
- Flow rate will need to be upgraded as the baby grows
Performance notes
The preemie flow nipple is designed to release milk more slowly than standard newborn nipples, matching the feeding pace of very young or premature babies, while the Options+ internal vent system is built to cut down on air swallowing that can cause gas and colic-like fussiness.
