Anyone use MAM bottles?

What do you think of them?

We don't use the bottles but MAM is the only paci brand that DD will accept.

Same here. I like the fact that the pacis don't have the ring, so he can't pull it out as easily.

We use them.  When I made the transition to bottles around 3 months, we had a hard time finding ones that dd liked.  We tried a bunch of different bottles and dd definitely liked MAM the best.  (we tried them because it was the only paci that she would keep in her mouth).

The only thing that sucks about them is that they leak if you don't get the bottom on just right.  Oh well...

I had every intention of using Dr. Browns bottles, however my DS hated them and refused to drink from them. At about 2 days old, I noticed he did not have any issues with the MAM pacifiers I was giving him, but continued to hate/struggle with the Dr. Brown bottles. Thats when I went out and got the MAM bottles, hoping that if he liked the nipple on the pacificer, he would like it on the bottle. Well it worked like a charm, and he is now 3 months old and I still have had no issues with him taking the MAM bottles. I like them- find them easy to wash clean, and really have had no issues with them at all. I agree with the previous post though- if you dont have the bottom of the bottle on EXACTLY right, it will leak. Also, I find the bottles difficult to take apart when my husband puts them together. Its hard to grab on and twist the bottom off the bottle if they are on tight (which you try to do in order to avoid leaks).

We have used them, as well as the pacifiers (the nipples on both are different though FYI).  I love the bottle nipples - LO makes WAY less of a mess with them than with regular nipples. I hated the bottles though.. the bottom piece was annoying to wash and screw on just right and I thought they looked kind of junky and plastic.  But suddenly one day I realized that the nipple fits into the rings for Avents and Coddlelifes - problem solved!
