Dr. Brown's is out to get me.

gipfish · March 2016

When Dr. Brown's bottles were recommended to me by multiple people, I looked them up online and saw mixed reviews. Some said they leak way too much, and some say they can't possibly leak if you put them together correctly.

I'm here to tell you that Dr. Brown's bottles are out to get me. They have never once leaked for my husband, but they leak a steady stream for me half of the time, no matter which of us put the bottle together. There have been times I handed off the baby in the middle of a feeding, saying, "Careful, this bottle is leaking a lot," and it immediately stops for my husband. And there have been times he handed off to me, only to have them start up leaking in the middle of the feeding.

It is a source of laughter in our household, but if anybody has any insight or similar experiences, I'd love to hear.

My husband is convinced it is my superpower. (My "superpower" is that if I hold in my hand an electronic with a new or fully charged battery, it dies in about 15 minutes. My dad has a similar issue. He has deactivated hotel key cards and ruined computer trackpads by touch.) I'm just convinced the bottles are out to get me. :-P
