Opinions on bottles

Which one do u use?

I've tried

Dr. Brown: to many parts, no matter which level nipple they use they get tired and wont finish eating=getting up sooner.

Avent: they love the nipple but it leaks, is not BPA-free and get gassy

Playtex (drop-in): They hate it.

?I'm gonna continue to use Dr.Brown since I dont want for them to get nipple confused but I wish they could eat more w them

?

TIA,

Re: Opinions on bottles

  • We are using the Evenflo Comfi bottles. They are BPA free and don't have tons of parts. The girls eat fairly well with the slower nipple, but I've put a faster flow nipple on them to test that out.
  • You can switch the Dr. Brown's in and out of a few bottles, I think, if you like the nipple, but not the bottle parts.  I've heard good things about the gerber clearviews.

  • We use Gerber clear view bottles.  BPA free, inexpensive, and they work great!  Our babies have had zero problems with them.

  • We ended up liking the Evenflo glass bottles best. The nipples have little divots on the rim that allow air to vent, and they are soooo much easier to clean than Dr Browns bottles. My only complaint about them is they are kinda heavy - but with twins your arms get strong fast! Amazingly, the bottles are really hard to break. We've even (accidentally) thrown them across the room and they bounce on the ceramic tile. We've broken a few, but they took some seriously hard falls.

    Now that the boys are trying to hold their bottles we should probably get some plastic ones, but I hate to buy more bottles when they'll only be using them for a couple more months.

  • we use dr brown's bpa free. ?DD uses a level 4 nipple. and DS uses a level 3. ?they eat 7 ounces in about 10-15 min.
  • We really love our Born Free bottles.  But, they're crazy $$.  Ah, well...
  • Hi Zeidy!

    We use BPA and have had great success with them.

  • we just introduced Jax to Dr. B's bottles, and he's doing fantastic with them! We've been using Playtex Airflow with Brady and he does good with them - ALTHOUGH he'd drink from anything. He's a VERY gassy kid, so I'm assuming those probably aren't the best bottles for him.

    ?Speech gave me a great tip on how to wash all those annoying parts of Dr.B's bottles. Use a garmet mesh bag (that you use in the washing machine) and just throw it on the top rack of the dishwasher - she said it works like a charm!?
