Bottleswhat do you use?

I was just curious as to what bottles people were using, if at all. I use mam and avent, but I find the mam leak sometimes from the bottom and I don't like the possibility of losing any BM.
So, what bottles do you ladies use?

Re: Bottleswhat do you use?

  • We tried Tommy Tippee and DS couldn't get a good latch, I think the nipple was to big. So we switched to Nuk and he's doing really well with those.

  • The medela ones that came with my pump (with latex nipples).  So far she hasn't taken to silicone nipples, but I'm hoping to get her to take the tommee tippee bottles we have.  I'm sure she will- I think I remember DS not liking silicone nipples at first either.  She's only had about 4 bottles of BM so far.

  • We started using the Medela bottles with the Calma nipple that came with my breast pump. I didn't like it at all because the milk seemed to flow out of it much too easily and would spill down LO's chin and neck.

    Next we tried some Vital Baby, Nurture bottles that we received for free. I liked them because the nipples resembled actual breasts. I hoped they would discourage nipple confusion. I don't mind them and we still use them but the nipples deflate during feeding so that's a bit annoying.

    We mostly use Avent Nature bottles now. Love them!

  • I use Playtex drop-ins and Ventaire- I tried using Dr. Brown's, Avent, Born Free and MAM with LO when I was EPing, and the Playtex were they only ones he would consistently eat well from and not spit up after. Now that we are FFing he still prefers only the Playtex which was the same way DD was.

  • Tommie Tippee and Playtex Vent Aire. I tried the drop ins but the nipple seems to leak.
  • BoRn Free has worked the best for us.

  • Tried EVERY bottle under the sun and LO only likes the cheap Gerber bottles! That's fine with me as they are cheap and fit my medela pump! Also the nipple and ring fit the medela bottles so I can use those too!

    We use the Avent Natural bottles as well. LO does great with them. She did well with the Tommee Tippee bottles too but the lip on it is annoying as it seems that BM gets caught up in it unless you tip it completely upsidedown. We used the Medela bottles that came with the pump initially but LO's suck was so strong that she would collapse the nipple.
