In a soft ivory finish, it pairs two bottle sizes with a range of natural rubber latex teats, so you can move between smaller newborn feeds and larger volumes as your baby's appetite grows.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlongside the 150 ml and 270 ml bottles, the kit comes with slow, medium and fast flow latex teats, a spill-preventing milk lock and a foldable funnel for adding formula powder — the pieces you tend to reach for day to day, ready to go from the start. The bottles are lightweight BPA-free PP plastic with clear measurement markings in standard feeding increments, so it's easy to see levels and pour at a glance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFlow rates that grow with your baby\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \"grow and flow\" idea is exactly that: the set includes teats in three flow rates, so you can start gently and step up as your baby feeds more confidently. It's worth knowing that flow labels aren't standardised across brands, and age is only ever a guide — your baby's feeding cues matter more. Coughing, gulping, leaking or pulling away can suggest a flow that's too fast, while long, effortful feeds or frustration can point to a slower flow or an assembly issue. If feeding difficulty persists, it's best discussed with a health professional.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnti-colic valve:\u003c\/strong\u003e The teat valve is designed to reduce the amount of air baby draws in during a feed, intended to support a smoother, steadier milk flow.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBreast-like teat shape:\u003c\/strong\u003e The rounded teat is shaped to mimic the feel and movement of breastfeeding, designed to make moving between breast and bottle feel more familiar.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMatched to a round pacifier shape:\u003c\/strong\u003e The teat is designed to match the shape of round dummy teats, for a consistent feel across feeding and soothing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKeeping it clean\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCleaning is a big part of daily bottle life, so it helps to have a routine:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBefore first use, sterilise all bottle components in boiling water for 5 minutes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSterilise the nipples and bottle components before each use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll bottle components, except the funnel and the nipple, are top-rack dishwasher safe.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInspect the nipples regularly and replace them as needed — every 1–2 months for latex (or every 2–3 months for silicone, if you add silicone teats from the range) — and sooner if they show any sign of damage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePart of the wider BIBS collection\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis starter kit is designed to slot into the broader BIBS feeding range, so you can mix and match nipple materials, flow rates, accessories and cap colours across the collection as your needs change.
