6m + baby feeding bottle teat flow

Question

Asked for Female, 28 Years

Hello Doctor, My baby boy is 6 months & 10 days old. Used slow flow teat upto 3 months and using medium flow after 3rd month and until now. Now wants to change the teat. Which teat should I use for baby "fast or Y cut" teat? (Please find attached pic). Is it correct to change the teat every 3 months for the flow as some feeding bottle companies sell bottles at different stages. Should I change both bottle and teat every 3 months or only teat is fine? Please suggest Doctor. Thank you.
