My LO has had bad gas since week 2. (She is 6 weeks today) We are currently using Mylicon drops (recommended by pedi) and Playtex Ventaire Advanced bottles. The pedi also put her on Enfamil Gentlease. Since we have started her on the mylicon drops and the gentlease, the gas has gotten better. When feeding her though, I can still feel the bubbles in her belly. Is it the bottle causing the air bubbles? Should we try different bottles and if so which ones work best for gas?
Re: Best bottle to prevent air bubbles/gas in baby
We used playtex ventiaire and LO really liked them but I got some Medela bottles and he does ten times better with them. Maybe worth a try!

We used to use drop ins but she had bad gas and spit-up with them...then tried the NUK bottles and she hated the nipple...we finally got the Avent anti-colic bottles and they seem to work out great so far. She likes them, and she has had noticably less gas and spit-up.
