Tomee tipee- what bottles do you use?

LittleA's

I was using tomee tipee bottles for LO but after 4 weeks, half the nipples don't work and the caps don't fit! I'm going to call the company but I'm very disappointed! They are expensive too! anyway, sorry long rant, what bottles do you reccomend?

My LO loves playtex ones, she refuses any other brand. They are nice size to hold and easy to clean.

We use Tommee Tippee and haven't had any problems.

I actually just bought some dr browns because they have a preemie nipple option which is awesome for breasted babies. So far I like them, and the extra cleaning is really nbd if you buy the dr browns bottle brush.

I used tommee tippee sippy cups for my olders and they worked great, the only one I could find that didn't leak.
I use Avent bottles with my little man and they work great too. I used Avent and Playtex aire with my twins when they were little.

I use dr. Browns and like them. Wish I would remember to pick up some NB nipples though so she stops guzzling it so fast.

I haven't been impressed with the Tommee Tippee bottles. The ones I have leak half the time and the nipple caves in when LO eats. I really like the Dr. Brown's bottles because they seem to make her eat a little slower, with the Born Free bottles coming in a close second. DH likes using the Playtex drop-ins bottles just for convenience and ease of clean-up. Julia isn't picky about bottles - as long as there is food coming out, she's happy.

Dr. Brown's 8 oz. glass bottles with preemie nipples.  Cut down on gassiness for us big time.

I had all tommee tippee bottles and after trying them with LO I took all unopened bottles back due to leaking. So now I use dr browns and they work really good and are the worth extra parts to wash.

Playtex vent aire, no complaints.

We used Dr.Brown's for DS1. They worked great but were a PITA to clean. I have been using Tommee Tippee bottles this time with no issues.

Typically I use the Medela bottles, but I also just bought the Joovy Boob bottle...I, and more importantly LO, seems to like it.

We use Tommee Tippee for almost 6 weeks now with no problems. At first I had problems with them leaking but it was because I wasn't putting them together the right way.

We use Nuk bottles and LO seems to like them. I think they work well with going back and forth between breast and bottle.

We finally tried the Como Tomo bottle I had laying around and are 100% sold. It's slow, doesn't leak, and he doesn't get milk all over his face.

Back when I did my registry I wanted playtex vent aire.. I ended up buying the drop ins.. LO has difficulty nursing and latching properly.. So we never really got the hang of it which I regret. Anyways, I do not really like how wide the nipples are for the drop ins, especially because she makes a huge mess when she eats.. So I bought the vent aire bottles in standard size and she does a lot better eating with those

We use Medela because thats what we got with our pump.

KelseyKetchum

I use medela calma because I like the nipple he still has to work for the milk and it doesn't end up everywhere.

*Thread jacking* For those of y'all using Dr Browns-- did you hand wash or did you use the dishwasher baskets? Wondering if the baskets work for the little pieces and parts....

Breastflow by First Years. It has an extra part inside the nipple so LO has to use the same technique at the bottle as the breast (compression and suction).

The baskets are great. I bought 3 which seems to be perfect. Holds stuff for 9 bottles. There is a spot for all the little parts. I fill the bottle with soapy water when done, shake it up to get the milk out, rinse, disassemble, and put in the dw basket. Easy. Tomee tipee always leaked for me and lo smooshed the nipples. Eta: I'm using the baskets specifically made for dr browns bottles

Those didn't work for us. I hated them, actually! I love love love the Dr. Brown's bottles I got. Ozzy isn't near as gassy on them. And the bottle nipples work really well for him.

Ariella is super picky. The only ones that she'll take are regular gumdrop bottles or the Gerber bottles. She doesn't like anything with the anti-gas/colic nipples. She hated the shape of nuk. Hayes everything except for an old school plain bottle!
