I got recommended this bottle by my lactation consultant. My bub took it straight away from 7 days old and it was a breeze switching between breast feeding and bottle. The bottle is easy to clean and put back together. A bit pricey but worth it especially when they are newborn and still developing suck and latch.

The Calma teat worked really well for both my exclusively breastfed sons, the both took to it easily from birth without any fuss. The flow is controlled by bubs to mimic the breast so I was confident that they wouldn’t begin to prefer the bottle over breastfeeding. However my daughter wouldn’t take the bottle, no matter which teat we used so isn’t a fail proof teat.
If you plan to exclusively breastfeed but want baby will take a bottle every now and then, my advise is to start from birth or a few weeks old on a semi regular basis (weekly works for us).
The 3 part teat is slightly more annoying to clean compared to a traditional teat. And it is quite expensive also compared to other teats so would quickly become pricey if you needed to buy more than 1. But given I only use it on a casual basis, these factors haven’t concerned me.

The constant attempts to help him latch just resulted in more and more failures. May work for some others but seemed to make our issues worse.
