Babies: 0 - 3 Months

What "brand" is your baby?

There were tons of babies born in my family this year that we just met for the first time at Christmas. What surprised me was everyone used different bottles/pacis- I guess I'm just used to what we use so it stood out to me that they used something else. Our baby is a drop-ins/nuk baby, and has one cousin who's Dr.Browns/Soothie and another who's evenflo/mam. 

So now I'm interested to see the popular combos out there- what brand is your bab? Also is it different than what you planned? Post your preferences! :)

Re: What "brand" is your baby?

  • Sorry, this has NOTHING to do with your question...but are those fabric Fallopian tubes and uteruses??? LOL!!

    But to answer your question, I use Brown's for pumped milk.  We used a pacifier only one night when she was super fussy and we couldn't figure it out. We did not plan to use a pacifier, and the next night when we tried it again she spit it out immediately, haven't tried again.(We are very glad about that! Just our opinion!)

    Yup! They're plushie utes :)

    I found the pic on a blog years ago and they were kind of my infertility mascots- its hard to be mad at your uterus when you picture it like that- all smily & snuggly lol.

  • Breastflow bottles and Soothie/NUK pacis here Smile
    DS born 12/2011
    DD born 03/2014

  • Dr. Browns/NUK here.

    After a lot of "comfort nursing" we introduced the paci, to give DW a break from being a human pacifier.

    And we really wanted glass bottles, and several friends has used Dr. Browns with a lot of success.

  • I have a weird LO. DS loves Avent bottles and paci's. He won't take any other bottles and screams hysterically if I give him a Mam or Nuk paci (those are the two other brands we have right now). My nephew is a drop in and no paci baby. SIL still hasn't found a paci that he likes and won't try the Avent ones because she doesn't want me to be right if her DS takes them :)

  • With this LO she's Avent bottles and Avent pacis. My other 2 were brown's and mam.

  • Currently boob/Soothies. Planning to use Dr. Brown's when he's ready for bottles, but we'll see if he has other plans! :) We've also got a package of Tommy Tippees to try if the Dr. Brown's don't go over well.

  • DD#1 was Nuk/Nuk.

    DD#2 is Evenflo/Nuk.  She is a strong sucker and was drowning herself with the Nuk bottles.

  • We use Dr Browns bottles and paci's. We started with Tommee Tippe and she liked those bottles too, but got DB when she was having a lot of gas. The DB paci's are the ONLY ones she has ever taken!
  • We use Evenflo Purely Comfi bottles and the clear Avent pacis. No reason really, it's just what we registered for and it worked!

  • DS is the boob (medela if pumped) and gumdrop from the NICU.
  • LO is a boob/avent and nuk baby. I was hell bent on avent whenever we needed to use a bottle and we tried soothie, avent and nuk, but the nuk is the only one she'll take, but not well.

  • DD is an Evenflo/ NUK or Avent girl. Mom bought the NUKs because heck, they were cheaper. The Avents were a gift and she uses those as well. Overall she doesn't seem too picky.
  • DS was a Breastflow/Gumdrop baby but he was getting gas and spitting up a lot with the Breastflow bottles and after about 4 weeks, he didn't want the Gumdrop pacis anymore. So now, he is a Dr. Brown's/Playtex Binky baby!

  • DD1 was an Avent/Mam baby. 

    DD2 is an Avent/Soothie baby.  I hate the Soothie and was so glad DD1 didn't like it.  However, the Soothie is the only paci that DD2 will take.  I just ordered a Wubbanub so hopefully I will like the Soothie a lot more once that gets here.

  • We use Drop Ins and Avent/Soothies pacis.

    Originally we were using Avent and Breastflow bottles but I didn't like those. Drop Ins have worked really well for us.

    BFP #1: 3.28.11 Dx w/ PIH @ 24w DS Born @ 36w: 11.7.11 6 Days in NICU
    BFP #2: 8.31.16 Dx w/ GD @ 28w DD Born @ 36w: 4.21.17


  • Whatever brand was on sale or the cheapest is what we got for DD - no problems with anything so far & if she has any preferences, we can't tell.

  • DD1 was an advent baby at daycare but never really liked a paci. DD2 is hopefully going to be an advent baby too but I've been lazy and haven't given her a bottle since we got home from the hospital. I should get on that!  She won't take a paci either. 

     Im actually happy with the lack of paci love in this house, one less thing to worry about forgetting and we don't have to eventually figure out how to ditch.

  • Boob (and platex drop-ins when needed) and SOOTHIES!!!!  My boys NEVER used a Soothie, I was anti-soothie, I think they are horrendous looking!!!   Boys always used Nuk.  She hated the Nuk, loooves her Soothie!

  • Breastflow and Soothie; but LO has a "Tight Upper Frenulum" which made latching on to breast difficult and had a similar problem with the Breastflow bottles, so now we are using playtex drop ins.
