Hey there! Mama of 4, bottle fed all 4, with two who needed oral therapy. I will leave a tl;dr on bottom. Speech pathologists love standard neck dr browns, and wide neck bottles like lansinoh, the evenflo bottle, for the reasons she mentions in this video. The WORST is is cotomo and any bottle that has a severe sudden slope. Now if you are mostly nursing its probably not as much of a concern as your baby gets great training while nursing and it probably wont matter as much if your baby refuses dr browns or a gradual slope bottle (I would still recommend staying away from como tomo.) Also, sippy cups- straw cups are excellent for development! It is a learning curve but speech therapists love them because of all the strength and training the lip formation and suction provides. The best ones are the ones with valves as they will give resistance. As far as pacifiers, all my kids have used tommee tippie and mam.My youngest was using cherry shaped like itzy ritzy aswell but i didnt like his latch. My oldest needed therapy because we think he had a weak suction from birth and being a new mom, i didnt know his symptoms were abnormal. He also spoke very well and very early so it took till 2.5 for me to reach out. My 3rd child had an underbite and bad latch. I made the mistake of giving him bottles with sudden slopes since I assumed less leaking meant better latch. He also had a tongue tie reattach and that made a major complication as well. He too learned to speak well and speak early, thankfully with my experience with my oldest I knew something was wrong when he was 9 months old and drowning on a sippy cup. I like to share about him speaking well because I had an ENT insist he didnt need a second tongue tie revision as he was speaking and eating. She claimed he was "not symptomatic.' Well theres far more to it than speaking and being able to swallow food. haha but anyway! TLDR: DR Browns, Lansinoh, Evenflo balance plus (wide and standard.) Basically anything standard neck or with gradual slope are the best options along with the slowest nipple flow. Ive had kids need oral and feeding therapy and tried to learn as best I could.
It’s funny because the first one LOOKS more like a breast. However, the second one acts more like a breast in that it is malleable and fits into the baby’s mouth. We use the lasinoh bottles when we do use them.
I love the lansinoh bottles. Actually started using them by accident because I have their manual pump and just used the bottle it came with to feed baby. Ended up being her favorite bottle so we ordered a ton more 🤣
Have I been intentionally spayed to PREVENT baby? Yes Will I still have this in the back of my mind if a baby gets dropped off on my door step? Also yes.
I used to work in a toyrus/babiesrus and it was very much ‘well, that brand is always returned, this one is expensive with a lot of engineering by men, this one looks like it’s meant for you, but this is the last bottle everyone buys and you want it’
@@laura897001 the bottles I also used for my son is now what they now called Playtex VentAire. It just seems like yesterday he was a baby but he'll be 23 in September.
Im pregnant with my first and just learned that the nipple should go all the way to the baby's soft pallet. I was shook! I didn't know it went in the far, but it makes a lot of sense that you would want a bottle that can easily go deep into the mouth
I want to encourage you right now that breastfeeding is largely extremely possible but it's not necessarily intuitive and there is nothing wrong AT ALL with seeking care from an IBCLC. Also, we could not have done it without a MyBrestFriend pillow. Boppy is great for a lot of things but shockingly unsupportive and unhelpful for breastfeeding.
@sarahs.7211 oh yeah for sure. My birthing center has lactation consultants on deck to help new mamas and i absolutely intend to utilize that service. Everyone should use the help they can, it takes a village!
@@AshK457 hell yeah. The IBCLC on call after my cascade-of-interventions hospital birth was a CREATURE but the one we saw a few days later was the best person I've met.
@@JonathanMullany-fx1qhProbably a single pacifier from a specific brand or two. Sometimes brands will send a sample of their product for people to try out, whether for a review like this or just to give them an idea of how they feel about the product in the hopes they'll like it and buy more (think like the perfume samples in magazines years ago). I'm expecting a baby at the beginning of August, and there are a lot of baby brands that either have samples or coupons they'll send expecting mothers for free just for signing up for a registry or emails from their site. Target, for example, gives you a small bag full of various product promos if you create a registry with them, so I've been able to try things like individual serving packs of stretchmark lotion, formula, and I even have two small bottles from two different brands I'm now gonna check with this trick.
Curious to hear what you recommend. My twins are 10.5 months and won’t take any paci that we’ve tried. The problem is we haven’t found anything to help them self soothe, so it’s a real struggle, especially since they don’t sleep well either.
Thank you so much for this video. I remember when I was a first time momma, my mom has just passed and I had no one to ask for help. I went to my pediatrician (a D.O.) and asked her for bottle recommendations and she dismissed me and spoke to me like I was an idiot for asking. I know there is a new momma out there that is so grateful for this video.
I pray you immediately found a new pediatrician. And I'm so sorry for the loss of your mother before you were a mother... We do badly need our momma's. Mine just passed and it still hurts every day. 1.7 years later. Still not used to her being gone. She really saved me with my 1st. Thankfully, our babies don't remember most of our blunders as new parents .
I was lucky enough to attend a lecture by the woman who created the latter bottle. So much good info and I have passed it on to as many mamas as I can.
I wish I had known this before I had my daughter last year 😢 She was in the NICU for a month after a traumatic birth experience & had a hard time eating. We tried breastfeeding hour after hour until we were both exhausted. We had to use a bottle & she was also on a feeding tube until she could learn to eat on her own. Pumping in those early days in the hospital was rough. We both kept trying to learn how to breastfeed from the source. We used nipple shields of every size, shape & texture, & kept at it until I had to finally come to terms with the idea that breastfeeding wasn't going to happen for us. I'm grateful we both still bonded & sooo thankful I could at least give her my breast milk in whatever way we got it into her! And I will say, once we were all home & my milk was plentiful & I was in bed exhausted, it was sort of nice to have the hubby & grandma's do feedings while I got the much much needed uninterrupted sleep 😴 💤 My daughter just turned 1. She is a very happy, healthy, loving, sweet baby girl & I thank God every day he gave me my 1 & only miracle baby. ❤ I wish I could have more children & apply what I learned with the first, but it isn't in the cards for us.
You should make a play list walking new moms/dad's through the first year of parenting with tips, tricks, how to's, and normal health concerns. I say this cuz me and my husband are going to start trying for a baby soon. ❤️
Yeah for someone that doesn’t know much about this you did actually say why one is better. You just said where the babies mouth will go, you never said “and you want one like this because you want baby’s mouth to reach this far”
Came to the comments looking for this answer 😂 I even re watched for context clues and the way she referred to it as severe slope a d dead space, I would have thought the first one was the better choice, but she never explicitly said which one was better... Thank you for clarifying
You're just nitpicking. She went through both bottles' shapes and explained why one shape is not good, and one shape is idea. In this day and age, she really doesn't need to EXPLICITLY verbally say "____ is better". It's the context of the video, so if you watch it from beginning to end, it is very very clear which bottle nipple shape is the ideal for a baby's mouth. Your last statement shows that you grasp the primary message, too. So you did get the same answer I got from the video.
I breast fed my first born for 14 months. She never used a bottle and she never left my side for those months😂 Because we couldn’t find a bottle for her to properly eat from. We tried going out and my mom said she screamed and wouldn’t use the bottle. When I picked her up I was engorged and she got milk drunk.
Plus if you're using a bottle warmer for milk, the silicone ones take FOREVER to heat up. My favorite bottles (for ease/latch) while I fed 10 babies each 6 bottles a day were the Lansinoh. For my babies with reflux, MAM was nice. Tommee Tippee and Philips Advents work great for some kids and not so great for others.
Among my cousins and peers, I was the first to have kids... Prior to my own pregnancy, the only pregnancies i had ever seen were those of our dogs and cats...😂 Now when, we had to buy bottles for feeding, (i used to pump too), I had thought about this factor of suction. Mind you, I have studied physics and i love it. So i kind of was thinking about something that would help in suction and not cause tiredness to the muscles of the lips for the baby. So i used the regular long tapered nipple ones... My babies would switch easily between bottle and breast and i could feed them for about 3.5 years. Why i mentioned the peers/cousins fact at the beginning was that once the others started having kids, if i ever gave any advice regarding feeding patterns I was shot down saying "oh those are the old ways/the round ones are better/etc" Needless to say, their children were fed for a basic of 6 months and another 6 months struggling and that too irregularly. P.S.: I am Indian and not giving advice or helping your female family members during and after pregnancy is frowned upon. So it wasn't the case of unsolicited advice.
Wish I had this tip with my youngest. Purely breast fed because she refused a bottle. So glad those days are behind me though lol. I miss her being small, but I don’t miss the pains of breast feeding 😅
❤ mom of 11 who's breastfed and pumped with all of them!! Best bottle we have ever EVER USED is the boon nursh bottles not only are they made like your breast but they're convertible they turn into a sippy cup then a straw cup or snack cup and have pods you can get so 1 shell without having to wash can make up to 3 sterile bottles❤❤ BOON NURSH FOR THE WIN!!!!❤❤
I used the 2nd one and it was an incredible bottle. He was born with a lip tie and we had extreme problems with breastfeeding. So I had to use both, and this bottle allowed me to keep breastfeeding him while bottle feeding.
Yes, but the gradual slope is the most similar to how a breast functions inside the mouth. You want that wide base and then for the nipple to reach back far into the palate so it’s similar to breast feeding
Oh less space! When there’s more space it usually is less likely baby will get a deep latch but the gradual slope with less space will allow baby to take the n!pple in their mouth to the base which is more similar to a breast
I wish i new this tip i spent hundreds of pounds (well felt like it) on different bottles till my than bf aunt brought up some MAM bottles her grandson had finished with, game changer! Best part they was like new!
MAM bottles worked best for my kids too! All were combo breastfed and bottlefed. They seemed to match my small nips/small boobs combo the most closely 😅
This make so much sense! I never liked those first kind of bottles when babies would have them in the daycare I worked at but couldn’t explain why. At least now I feel justified in not liking them😂
The green comotomos are actually the only ones that worked for my son because he had a hard time latching to breast shape so it really depends on the baby
Oh for sure. Everything in baby land is baby dependant. But this is generally a rule that will work to find the bottle that in theory is best for a baby going between breast and bottle and developing those feeding muscles
Same… my 4 breastfed kiddos needed to take a bottle occasionally and como tomo bottles where the ones they would take and still be able to nurse without any issues switching between the 2.
I’m hoping to have a baby in the next couple of years. Your videos always make me feel more confident and prepared instead of scaring me off from having a kid. Thanks!
OMG I wish I could go back in time (5 months ago) because I bought 2 sets, for my twins, of bottles that look just like number 1, and they hated, although it resembles my breasts way more.
Nope you don’t. As mentioned that can leave your baby chomp chom chomping on your nipples. The video of the gradual slope says it will encourage their feeding muscles to develop similar to how they feed at the breast. Remember shaped like a triangle with a gradual slope is best ❤
So which brand is the one you recommend? I know the Como Tomo but I don't recognize the other. TIA. Edit: Found it! For anyone interested it is Evenflo brand. Very affordable also, Walmart has a 2 pack for under $10. According to her recommendations Emulait has a good one also but they're much more expensive, $30 ea. To me, and I'm not a nurse, they look even more breastlike than the Evenflo but IDK if they'd actually be any better or if so if they're so much better that it would justify the price.
Where can I find the one with the white bottle? I can't find it online. My baby is 13 days old, and I'm struggling with her latching, and I think that one would help a lot. Also, is there a nipple that has a slower flow rate than a 1? It comes out the corners of her mouth and runs down her cheeks. She does gag and cough from it occasionally.
Introducing a breastfed baby to the bottle.... 😂😂😂 right. 🤣🤣😔 I way over-produced, and consequently had a freezer full of breastmilk with this fantasy in mind that I'd be able to leave my baby with someone else while I got just a tiny bit of sanity time. Not until she was over two years old. (Actually all of my kids categorically refused bottles, even with breastmilk.) They were NOT having it, and I tried so many different types. I do wish these sorts of bottles would have been available to try in the late 80s through the mid-90s. Ended up giving away all that frozen milk (plus the additional 10-20 oz/day I pumped fresh) to a La Leche League leader that had adopted a malnourished toddler (we were stationed in the Philippines at the time).
This is so true, or it was for me and my two babies. They were exclusively breastfed and I started using breast milk in bottles while they were small to get used to it. Lansinoh bottles man. ICONIC!!
PLEASE be aware of your babies needs. My son was breastfed, but had sensory issues so was VERY picky about his bottle and pacifier. He preferred the cheapest ones. We never had any complications with breastfeeding despite using both. I was stressed and that's the last thing nursing moms need. While this might be helpful, sometimes your baby needs something else and that's okay. Fed babies and low stress moms are the healthiest!!
im a daycare worker and i hate those booby bottles 😭 they are so hard to open and they leak everywhere if the baby drops it because the nipple gets smushed and starts shooting out formula
I'm not gonna lie, I've always stuck with Avent bottles just because they're easier to use and clean. I never have much thought to how the baby had to transition between boob and bottle. But it never seemed to be an issue with any of them. (I have 3.) 🤷🏻♀️
The Lansinoh bottles was what I used for my son when I transitioned him from the boob to bottle. He was so fussy and refused the various bottles I bought until the Lansinoh.
Also get the slowest flow rate possible. The evenflo was my pick. But know that babies are usually really adaptable. My baby drank from the philips avent wide his first month, then i transitioned him to the breast and he's great at it! Now we use the evenflo when necessary cause the shape of the avent was not good. You got this parents !!
Can confirm the evenflo balance bottles are the best. Used them with my breastfed babies after trying at least a dozen other so called "breastfeeding friendly" bottles.
My son rejected all bottles except the Evenflo balance and the tried and true playtex nurser bottle with the natural latch nipple and that was it...we went through months of hell and over 9 bottles being rejected..and we gave a bottle from day one..then boom at one month of having one bottle a day..he rejected them alllllll. The Evenflo balance and playtex nurser bottles saved my life. The Evenflo was easier to get my hands on and less parts to wash..so i loved them and my son didn't get feeding fatigue from them.
We used the bottle on the right, the second bottle shown, absolutely loved them! My friend that was breast feeding needed to switch to bottles for daycare and her baby was not having any of it, I finally gave her some of our old ones and he took to them immediately. They are great!
Yes! I had registered for nano bebe bottles. When I introduced them, his latch at the breast got out of sorts. Changed to Dr. Browns narrow and they actually support a natural latch! I always thought I had to have something wide-mouth but it’s not so!
What’s the name of the bottle you are showing I’ve never seen it. We tried MANY for extra feeds between latching give me a break and never found one like you’re showing. He refused ALL bottles. Only the real deal for this little man. Thanks for all you do.
I wish I had this 10 years ago when I was desperately trying to get my breastfed baby to take a bottle before her open heart surgery. It was horrible. In the end, she only had to take a bottle for 1 day in the PICU because I bothered them non-stop to let me try to hold her and nurse her. She was back to the breast in 1 day and was so much happier.
Very true... NUK used to make a huge binki like that and I LOVED THEM and bought 10 so i would be able to give my bfed babies (i nursed all 4 of my children) binkie or theyd want to pacify on my breast. I absolutely LOVED the huge NUK nipples but, cant find them any more. NUK BRING THEM BACK!!!
Damn! This is great. My Spectra pump actually came with a decent shape nipple then!!! My week and a half baby boy is breastfed, but my birthday is Thursday and I'm hoping to set my sister up with a bottle and some milk I leaked into my Boone cups while we go on a dinner date. Thanks for the tip! We have only fed him by bottle twice, and we used the Dr. Browns premie flow nipple. I like this better so he can transition back easier. He did sick on just my nipple after using that bottle!
PS, those "good" bottles are Evenflos. Besides being natural shape for breastfed baby, they also have a valve integrated into the nipple so only come in 3 pieces to clean instead of Dr. Brown or Tommy Tippy which have like 6 or 7. And they're cheap. Highly recommend.
I love how they never give bottle recommendations

The one with the gradual slope. Triangle shape

I used the 2nd one and it was an incredible bottle. He was born with a lip tie and we had extreme problems with breastfeeding. So I had to use both, and this bottle allowed me to keep breastfeeding him while bottle feeding.
Love that!!
What brand is it
What’s the brand of the better bottle?
That’s the Evenflo balance + wide. Lansinoh makes a great bottle too😊
You’re so right!
I always went with the one that resembled my breast more, because transitions are hard enough
Yes, but the gradual slope is the most similar to how a breast functions inside the mouth. You want that wide base and then for the nipple to reach back far into the palate so it’s similar to breast feeding
@@mamanursetina I totally get that! Thank you for educating the new moms! ❤️
@@mamanursetinawhat if your breast is shaped like the non sloped one?
@@cbabe1 then your baby can't latch. The nipple when a baby is nursing is no longer boob shaped. It turns into a full cone shape.
Very helpful information! Thanks!
So which one? With more space or less space?
Oh less space! When there’s more space it usually is less likely baby will get a deep latch but the gradual slope with less space will allow baby to take the n!pple in their mouth to the base which is more similar to a breast
Face palm
This is so so helpful
I wish i new this tip i spent hundreds of pounds (well felt like it) on different bottles till my than bf aunt brought up some MAM bottles her grandson had finished with, game changer! Best part they was like new!
MAM bottles worked best for my kids too! All were combo breastfed and bottlefed. They seemed to match my small nips/small boobs combo the most closely 😅
I also went through several bottles before finding the MAM ones, much more affordable and my babies love it
They also liked the Chicco bottles
It’s also supports the appropriate facial structure development. It can help with breathing and a whole domino effect of benefits.
This make so much sense! I never liked those first kind of bottles when babies would have them in the daycare I worked at but couldn’t explain why. At least now I feel justified in not liking them😂
So what is the good one?
Please tell me the name of this bottle and brand that is recommended? I can’t find it online “. Thanks 🤗
That’s the Evenflo balance + wide
The green comotomos are actually the only ones that worked for my son because he had a hard time latching to breast shape so it really depends on the baby
Oh for sure. Everything in baby land is baby dependant. But this is generally a rule that will work to find the bottle that in theory is best for a baby going between breast and bottle and developing those feeding muscles
The recommendation was for the best bottles for babies who are used to the breast already and need something similar.
Same… my 4 breastfed kiddos needed to take a bottle occasionally and como tomo bottles where the ones they would take and still be able to nurse without any issues switching between the 2.
Could this also help the other way around, like with a mom and baby having latching issues?
I needed this 45 years ago!!!
Your genius ❤❤❤❤
I’m hoping to have a baby in the next couple of years. Your videos always make me feel more confident and prepared instead of scaring me off from having a kid. Thanks!
OMG I wish I could go back in time (5 months ago) because I bought 2 sets, for my twins, of bottles that look just like number 1, and they hated, although it resembles my breasts way more.
Me, never planning on having kids, but watching anyway because knowledge is good:
So which one is better? Did i miss her saying it lol do you want alot of space or not?
Nope you don’t. As mentioned that can leave your baby chomp chom chomping on your nipples. The video of the gradual slope says it will encourage their feeding muscles to develop similar to how they feed at the breast. Remember shaped like a triangle with a gradual slope is best ❤
So which brand is the one you recommend? I know the Como Tomo but I don't recognize the other. TIA.
Edit: Found it! For anyone interested it is Evenflo brand. Very affordable also, Walmart has a 2 pack for under $10. According to her recommendations Emulait has a good one also but they're much more expensive, $30 ea. To me, and I'm not a nurse, they look even more breastlike than the Evenflo but IDK if they'd actually be any better or if so if they're so much better that it would justify the price.
This is Evenflo balance +!! I have a whole bottle review coming soon too
This is the info I was looking for too!! Thank You so much!!!
They look very, very similar to the lansinoh ones and the lansinoh is way cheaper too❤
Lansinoh are similar to what she recommended and they're anti colic too
THIS IS SO HELPFUL!
Where can I find the one with the white bottle? I can't find it online. My baby is 13 days old, and I'm struggling with her latching, and I think that one would help a lot. Also, is there a nipple that has a slower flow rate than a 1? It comes out the corners of her mouth and runs down her cheeks. She does gag and cough from it occasionally.
Great tip. Excellent content
Are the Emulait bottles worth the price or would the Evenflo do just as well?
I really don’t like the emulait bottles at all! I would personally go Evenflo balance plus or Lansinoh
@@mamanursetina how do you feel about Pigeon Soft Touch bottles? I live in New Zealand so some brands are harder to get hold of.
@@mamanursetina Thank you!!
That’s actually really helpful and I’m definitely gonna be using this tip
Wow, awesome advice! God Bless you ❤
Introducing a breastfed baby to the bottle....
😂😂😂 right. 🤣🤣😔
I way over-produced, and consequently had a freezer full of breastmilk with this fantasy in mind that I'd be able to leave my baby with someone else while I got just a tiny bit of sanity time. Not until she was over two years old. (Actually all of my kids categorically refused bottles, even with breastmilk.) They were NOT having it, and I tried so many different types.
I do wish these sorts of bottles would have been available to try in the late 80s through the mid-90s.
Ended up giving away all that frozen milk (plus the additional 10-20 oz/day I pumped fresh) to a La Leche League leader that had adopted a malnourished toddler (we were stationed in the Philippines at the time).
What's the brand of the other bottle the good one. Thank ladies n gents.
Great tip❤
Thank you!
This is so true, or it was for me and my two babies. They were exclusively breastfed and I started using breast milk in bottles while they were small to get used to it. Lansinoh bottles man. ICONIC!!
PLEASE be aware of your babies needs. My son was breastfed, but had sensory issues so was VERY picky about his bottle and pacifier. He preferred the cheapest ones. We never had any complications with breastfeeding despite using both. I was stressed and that's the last thing nursing moms need. While this might be helpful, sometimes your baby needs something else and that's okay. Fed babies and low stress moms are the healthiest!!
Never heard this!
Thank you!
how much i wish i found your chennel after my brother was born could have helped alot
Loved the evenflo bottles for my girls! They where great at reducing gas as well without the 50 billion pieces!😊
I really wish I had known this when my son was that age. Thank you for being informative.
Bless you for this!!
Amazing advice!
im a daycare worker and i hate those booby bottles 😭 they are so hard to open and they leak everywhere if the baby drops it because the nipple gets smushed and starts shooting out formula
I'm not gonna lie, I've always stuck with Avent bottles just because they're easier to use and clean. I never have much thought to how the baby had to transition between boob and bottle. But it never seemed to be an issue with any of them. (I have 3.) 🤷🏻♀️
Wow!!!! I’m the oldest of 11 kids and have THREE of my own, and has NO IDEA about this!!!!
Thanks. Appreciated❤
What's the name of the bottle brand?
The evenflow glass bottles look different! Can i have a glass recommendation?
The Lansinoh bottles was what I used for my son when I transitioned him from the boob to bottle. He was so fussy and refused the various bottles I bought until the Lansinoh.
Had thay green bottle when my baby was little. It was the only one he would drink from, so i won't crap on it. Whatever works for your baby.
So does the slope make a difference for non breast fed babies
The worry of “nipple confusion” isn’t there but this is still going to be good for the proper development of those facial and feeding muscles
Getting my baby to take a bottle was such a challenge! No one ever told me to expect it- we certainly were not ready lol!
I love this explanation
Also get the slowest flow rate possible. The evenflo was my pick. But know that babies are usually really adaptable. My baby drank from the philips avent wide his first month, then i transitioned him to the breast and he's great at it! Now we use the evenflo when necessary cause the shape of the avent was not good. You got this parents !!
So which one is better?
Listen to the video
I always noticed those squat bottles suck, thank you for explaining why!
That is actually extremely helpful because I am expecting and trying to choose bottles
Loving these life skills classes 👍❤
What s the brand of the correct bottle ?
Can confirm the evenflo balance bottles are the best. Used them with my breastfed babies after trying at least a dozen other so called "breastfeeding friendly" bottles.
This is so helpful. Thank you. ❤
Ok, wow I didn't know this. Super helpful!!
My son rejected all bottles except the Evenflo balance and the tried and true playtex nurser bottle with the natural latch nipple and that was it...we went through months of hell and over 9 bottles being rejected..and we gave a bottle from day one..then boom at one month of having one bottle a day..he rejected them alllllll. The Evenflo balance and playtex nurser bottles saved my life. The Evenflo was easier to get my hands on and less parts to wash..so i loved them and my son didn't get feeding fatigue from them.
We used the bottle on the right, the second bottle shown, absolutely loved them! My friend that was breast feeding needed to switch to bottles for daycare and her baby was not having any of it, I finally gave her some of our old ones and he took to them immediately. They are great!
Honestly the green one did fine for my son and it worked as intended, choose what works for you, not what people tell you online.
Yep, I agree 100%. But if there’s knowledge out there that might help that’s great too ❤
Yes! I had registered for nano bebe bottles. When I introduced them, his latch at the breast got out of sorts. Changed to Dr. Browns narrow and they actually support a natural latch! I always thought I had to have something wide-mouth but it’s not so!
What’s the name of the bottle you are showing I’ve never seen it. We tried MANY for extra feeds between latching give me a break and never found one like you’re showing. He refused ALL bottles. Only the real deal for this little man. Thanks for all you do.
new mommy to be here , thanks gworl 😊
I wish I had this 10 years ago when I was desperately trying to get my breastfed baby to take a bottle before her open heart surgery. It was horrible. In the end, she only had to take a bottle for 1 day in the PICU because I bothered them non-stop to let me try to hold her and nurse her. She was back to the breast in 1 day and was so much happier.
What’s the brand name of these bottles
what's the brand of the bottle she likes?
Very true... NUK used to make a huge binki like that and I LOVED THEM and bought 10 so i would be able to give my bfed babies (i nursed all 4 of my children) binkie or theyd want to pacify on my breast. I absolutely LOVED the huge NUK nipples but, cant find them any more. NUK BRING THEM BACK!!!
Amazing! Thank you!
Damn! This is great. My Spectra pump actually came with a decent shape nipple then!!! My week and a half baby boy is breastfed, but my birthday is Thursday and I'm hoping to set my sister up with a bottle and some milk I leaked into my Boone cups while we go on a dinner date. Thanks for the tip! We have only fed him by bottle twice, and we used the Dr. Browns premie flow nipple. I like this better so he can transition back easier. He did sick on just my nipple after using that bottle!
Thank you imma know the best bottles to gift 🎁
PS, those "good" bottles are Evenflos. Besides being natural shape for breastfed baby, they also have a valve integrated into the nipple so only come in 3 pieces to clean instead of Dr. Brown or Tommy Tippy which have like 6 or 7.
And they're cheap. Highly recommend.
I’m halfway through my pregnancy of my second child this time I’m breast feeding so this was helpful thank you
I recommend Philips Avent. We got one bottle as a gift when we were expecting and we were very pleased. Now I am also giving it away for baby showers.
I've had 6 kids, pregnant with #7, and I can confirm this is very true.
