Bottle Amp Nipple Problem

What is everyone using for bottles when you br___tfeeding but pumping and giving bottles? I'm having an issue with the milk flowing too fast even out of slow flow nipples and she's gagging on them really bad and can't drink properly. I have all sorts of nipples but they're too fast. I broke down and bought some of those playtex ones with the bigger nipple that have the liners and she does okay with this nipple but I HATE those stupid liners!!!! They're a pain to heat up in the water and make a mess and don't seal for easy storage. Anyone else have this problem? I have the Evenflo bottles with slow nipples, Ventaire and just regular ones. The playtex work but like I said, pain in the ass to heat up.

a pain to heat up. So I added a step to the process and heated it up before adding to the liner.

I thought about that too but it's just another added step that sucks. It's hard enough pumping and filling the bottles and warming them up and then having to put it in a different bottle to make it easier doesn't sound like much fun but I've thought about trying that too. I don't mind doing it but I'm thinking of my boyfriend trying to do all this some day when he's with her and she's bawling and he's going nuts. Ha ha!

I used the Avent: Naturally bottle when I fed my baby b___stmilk. The nipples are supossedly the closest to the real nipple, and my daughter did fine on them. They didn't flow too fast and you don't have to use liners. They are easy to warm up, too. I don't know if it will work for your baby, but it was fine for mine. Good luck!
