What did you have when in hospital?

When I came home with my premmie baby I use the cheapest bottles/teats from the supermarket as they were quite similar to the teats they had at hospital.

The tommie tippee ons are generally quite big and broad.

Hope you find a solution soon. xx

I called local midwife unit, explained what was going on and I wasn't under there care, they said no problem and sorted out some small bottles and teats they are not happy with midwife unit I was under as they should have explained about teats etc, just glad they were so good
