Our NEW Wide Latch Nipple features a gently tapered, triangular profile made from soft, matte silicone that flexes and compresses during feeding. This gradual shape and matte texture is designed to support a baby's deep and wide latch and is engineered for minimal wear and tear.
Often recommended by lactation professionals for breastfed babies or those transitioning between breast and bottle, this nipple offers a more flexible feel, grippier texture and a wider base that may help babies who struggle with shallow latch, slipping, or chewing on more structured nipples. While no bottle nipple can replicate breastfeeding, this evidence-informed design provides another thoughtful option to support your baby’s unique feeding preferences.
Available in three flow rates (newborn, slow, fast) to grow with your baby, the Wide Latch Nipple complements our Classic Nipple — giving families choice, flexibility, and confidence as feeding needs evolve.
If you don't know which flow rate to start with, we recommend staring with the slow flow nipple and sizing up or down based on your individual baby's feeding cues. If baby dribbles large amounts of milk, the flow rate is too fast. If baby cries and seems frustrated, the flow rate is too slow. If baby seems satisfied and only dribbles milk minimally, the flow rate is likely correct.
Fits all Babaloo bottles and collars.
