BFing/Pumping Moms...Recommend Your Bottles

CA2006 · December 2008

I know it's a lot of trial and error, but if you BF and pump, which bottles do you use and why? TIA!

Born Free....they were the 4th kind we tried. We finally found one ds likes.

Dr Browns. It is the first one we tried and she took it, so we went with it.

luckily for us, DS liked the first ones we tried, they are Born Free. We just moved to level 2 nipples and he's sooo happy.

Playtex dropins with silicon nipples. She latches onto it the exact way she should latch onto the breast. It takes more work for her to get the milk, so she doesn't eat it too quickly. The drop ins are incredibly convenient, and it's easier and quicker to wash. Walmart and Target both have store brands of the liners too, for much less.

We use the Playtex Drop-ins with latex nipples. He took to them like a champ for a whlle, went on a bottle strike for the last month, and just started taking them again. I love that we can just toss the liner, especially since we don't have a dishwasher.

We tried Dr browns and dd didn't like them and she was gassier so we switched to playtex vent aire and love them. I just ordered more of them i would only buy one and try it don't buy a whole pack until you know that thats the bottle for you.

I pump directly into the Medela bottles and feed him from those. On the rare occasion that I give him formula I use the Dr Browns. Same nipples.

Playtex drop ins with latex nipples. I use the BF storage kit and pump directly into the liners and then I can just screw a cap on and put it in the fridge. You can put that liner directly into a bottle when you need it. It is really convenient and saves a lot of time and dishes!
