Dr. Brown's Natural Flow Anti-Colic Baby Bottles - 8oz - 3pk

I still love these bottles. My son is now 10 months old and has been using these bottles since he was 3 weeks old. The absolute best thing about these bottles is that my son has been interchanging between breast and bottle since he was 3 weeks old and he has had no issue going from one to the other. I've heard about nipple confusion but never experienced it and I think these bottles have a lot to do with it. He drinks pumped milk from these bottles during the day when I'm at work and nurses in the mornings and nights when I'm home. The first time I gave him a bottle, I used the bottles that came with my Medela Freestyle Breast Pump - the nipples collapsed as soon as he started sucking on them. I switched to the Dr. Browns bottles immediately and my son went to town. I have used these bottles since. Yes, some of the blue decoration on the outside of the bottles has faded over time but that is not a big deal to me. I replace the nipples every 2 months or so but have been using the same bottles and parts for 10 months. I clean them in warm soapy water after every use and sterilize them in a microwave sterilizer once a week. They have held up great. No warping, no discoloration. I initially used the Philips AVENT BPA-Free Bottle Brush but I was replacing it every 2 months because the bristles kept flattening. I switched to the Munchkin Deluxe Bottle Brush about 3 months ago and haven't had to replace it - bristles still intact and it has a better nipple brush. Lastly, I use the Dr Browns microwave sterilizer, Dr Browns bottle warmer and the Munchkin Sprout Drying Rack which all work perfectly for the Dr. Browns bottle system. I recommend the Dr Brown's BPA Free Deluxe Gift Set because it has six 8 oz. bottles, four 4 oz. bottles, 10 Level 1 nipples, 4 Level 2 nipples, 4 Level 3 nipples, 4 Level 4 nipples, 6 storage caps and 5 cleaning brushes. It is available at BRU and I will be getting that for the next baby since I plan on buying a new set for him/her. Oh and for pumping mothers, I was able to pump directly into the 4 oz Dr Browns bottles while using my Medela Freestyle Breast Pump! They screw right into the pump parts. Lastly, my son never had gas issues and again, I attribtute that to these wonderful bottles. This is my first 5-star review ever - that says something.

My daughter and I did extensive research on what type bottle to use for her new baby - especially as she was nursing and needed to get baby on bottle (pumped breastmilk) before heading back to work. These bottles have worked perfectly. She tried the bottles and nipples that came with her Medela Breast Pump but they allowed baby to drink too fast and she had some choking issues. We did more research and then decided to try the Dr. Brown's 4 oz. bottles first (as she was not eating too much at the time). The nipples that came with that system were Level 1 and she also seemed to eat too fast, even though less choking. We read a review here at Amazon.com mentioning the Preemie nipples, so we bought and began using those. Worked perfectly. Baby had to eat slower, more sucking needed, seemed more like breastfeeding. We have now upgraded to the 8 oz. bottles as "our" 4 monther + 15 pounder, is doing fantastic and needs more at her feedings than the 4 ounce bottles allow (don't have to refill during feeding). BTW I babysit her every day while daughter at work so I have first hand experience with these bottles. We do burp her after 4 ounces and try to get a 10 minute break between the first and 2nd 4 ounces (total 8 ounce per feeding) and this works well - most of the time! Have kept the preemie nipple as she still breastfeeds when mamma not at work. No gas, no colic, no choking. Hope this helps and they work out for your baby too.

These are hands down the best bottles we've ever owned. They're great for a number of reasons: 1) The design prevents the baby from taking in extra air, cutting down on gas and burping, which in turn cut down on spit-ups. 2) Completely BPA free 3) Well made, high quality plastic. They're firm but not inflexible, shatter proof, and easy to hold. 4) Great heat transfer for heating up cold bottles (we heat them using hot water and a glass that is a bit wider in circumference than the bottle. Just pour in about half a glass of hot water, put in the bottle, let it sit for a minute or two and you're ready to go. No mess, and if you want the bottle a bit warmer, just repeat with a bit more hot water). 5) Exchangeable nipples--you can keep the bottle but swap out the nipple as your baby grows A few thoughts: Those complaining that they are made from too many parts are missing the point: the bottles have the additional parts to cut down on unwanted air intake as your baby drinks their milk. That means that your baby has fewer spit ups. I'll happily wash a few more bottle parts to save having to wash the baby, the floor, or myself (wherever his spit-ups land). It's a time saver in the long run. Bottles are easily washed. Babies and clothing not so much. To those who have experienced leaks: It's likely that either you have not installed the rubber stopper correctly, or that you have a defective stopper. In the first instance, check to make sure your stopper is lined up and inserted according to the instructions. If you're still having leaks, send the bottle(s) back and get replacements. Amazon will happily send you a new one, and if it's outside their window, contact Dr. Brown directly. Conclusions: These are a must buy if you want high quality plastic bottles. We've been more than happy with them.
