 with ds I Bf'ed for a few months...it was not a success so i am not even attempting this time around with two :-P

We used Dr. Browns with ds that I loved but I hated cleaning them...I can only imagine cleaning all those parts double time this time around!

What have you found is working or has worked best for you?

TIA!

I am so glad you posted this. We used Born Free last time. I liked the bottles, but felt there were a lot of pieces. I just don't want to spend all this time putting bottles together (times two now that we are having twins).

We used Mam bottles for our DD. We liked them, but they also had a lot of parts.

We use Dr Brown's - I never used anything else so w/o being able to compare them to anything the parts never bothered me.  I keep 2 dishwasher "baskets" on the kitchen counter and rinse the bottles and separate the parts in the baskets as I go.  And I run the dishwasher everyday.  I have a lot of bottles so I never had an issue of running out.

And I recommend Dr Brown's formula pitcher!!

I use Dr. Brown's and have 6 dishwasher baskets.  Easy.  I do one load a day.  I also have the Dr. Brown's pitcher and love it!

Dr Browns here too.  I just run everything through the dishwasher so the pieces do not bother me at all.

we used Avent with Griffin and HATED THEM - leaked, etc.

With the twins we used MAM bottles and have loved them! they don't have many parts - and they are easy to clean - and still have an air-vent system, that does NOT leak.

We use Dr. Browns as well and loved them.  They were rec from my LC when I stopped BF and just pumped for my babies.  We love them.  Unlike the pp's I don't run them through the dishwaher (although maybe I should) but I keep a tub in one side of my kitchen sink (double sink) and fill it with warm soapy water and after each feeding put all parts in it and clean them whenever I have time, but we have plently of bottles so if I don't clean them until the evening it's fine.  It is a lot of parts but the bottles are so good

this.  except I just seperate out the parts into the baskets once a day and never used the formula pitcher.  they worked well for us.

Sounds like I might be the only one who doesn't use Dr. Browns!  I might try them but I use Playtex VentAir.  Not a lot of parts and I've never had a leak.  I too keep a tub of soapy water and everything goes in and I wash when I have time.

we had this problem, too.  my kids like all bottles, even the cheapie evenflo & cheapie gerber.  

we have over 70 bottles, lol.

thanks everyone!

dishwasher not an option to wash bottles in....I hate our dishwasher, it doesn't wash that great so I wouldn't trust it with bottles : /

That is what we used to do with DS...we would leave a tub of warm soapy water and take bottles apart, wash when we had time and all that. maybe we will do it again or I will try the MAM bottles :-)
