What bottle did you use them with? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821219 Tue, 08 May 2018 18:44:07 +0000 mrswin 2821219@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetiePie: I can commiserate. My DD refused all other bottles and nipples except the latex ones for some reason. We ended up buying these Gerber ones, about as cheap as they come and they can go in the dishwasher!<br /> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Gerber-First-Essential-Latex-Nipples/dp/B000GCL4O8" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/Gerber-First-Essential-Latex-Nipples/dp/B000GCL4O8</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821210 Tue, 08 May 2018 17:37:15 +0000 SweetiePie 2821210@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Update: they work on dr browns without the venting system! We’ve done two feeds with this combo and it’s worked great, no leaks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821170 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:54:40 +0000 JJ2626 2821170@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetiePie: They work on Medela bottles! And I just put them in the dishwasher. They don’t last forever but we get maybe 10 used out of them. My lactation nurse said they are fine to re-use. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821169 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:54:17 +0000 gingerbebe 2821169@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetiePie: Yep exactly, I got the box from Amazon and used them for a while and then tossed them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821168 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:51:28 +0000 SweetiePie 2821168@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@gingerbebe: @mrsbubbletea: Yeah that’s what we’ve been doing! We had some left over from hospital and we’ve just been handwashing with hot water and soap. But we don’t have many and after a while they get kinda weird so I just orders like a 24 pack of the nipples and we’ll prob just use them hand washed a couple weeks at a time and then refresh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821166 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:42:41 +0000 mrsbubbletea 2821166@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetiePie: I never really sterilize either! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821165 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:42:37 +0000 gingerbebe 2821165@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetiePie: We handwashed the nipples in hot water and soap and the nurses at my hospital said it was fine to reuse them that way! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821164 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:42:01 +0000 mrsbubbletea 2821164@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetiePie: dr brown only works with the whole venting set up. So you’d have to use the nipple with the dr brown ring and all thst other stuff. Don’t use dr brown unless you love it or baby needs it, I hate washing all those parts! Try those cheap ones @kiddosc: recommends. Or maybe you know someone with unneeded medela bottles? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821163 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:41:32 +0000 sillymilly 2821163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was given Medela brand pumping bottles in the hospital and these exact nipples. They’ll go directly on any Medela bottle, and I never had any trouble with leaks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821162 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:40:57 +0000 SweetiePie 2821162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kiddosc: @gingerbebe: thank you!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821161 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:39:43 +0000 SweetiePie 2821161@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsbubbletea: and yes to buying them over and over. I don’t mind that and we’ll keep going back to standard nipples to see if anything changes. Right now feeding takes for.ev.er if we don’t use these nipples. But a level 2 is still too fast for him.<br /> (But I also don’t worry about sterilizing things much past when they are itty bitty) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821159 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:38:46 +0000 gingerbebe 2821159@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Medela ones work! Callsy loved the latex nipple on the Medela bottles! </p> <p>Also, I think the super cheap Gerber bottles use a latex nipple too.</p> <p>ETA: He eventually transitioned fine to the MAM bottles. He hated Dr. Browns, but that was the only one DS1 would use. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821158 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:38:37 +0000 kiddosc 2821158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetiePie: The cheapie Gerber first essentials bottles fit. They come with silicon nipples that are exactly that shape. They also have very similar latex nipples that are designed for multiple uses, but look to be shaped slightly different</p> <p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/NUK-Gerber-Piece-Essentials-Bottle/dp/B01N2OLG66/ref=sr_1_5_s_it?s=baby-products&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1525808209&#038;sr=1-5&#038;keywords=gerber+first+essentials" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/NUK-Gerber-Piece-Essentials-Bottle/dp/B01N2OLG66/ref=sr_1_5_s_it?s=baby-products&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1525808209&#038;sr=1-5&#038;keywords=gerber+first+essentials</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821154 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:37:16 +0000 SweetiePie 2821154@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsbubbletea: we were trying them on dr brown but they seemed to leak. I thought maybe had something to do with all the parts. Actually I didn’t use the collar, I used the dr brown collar with the nipple. I’ll see if the enfamil collar screws on to dr brown now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821152 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:33:24 +0000 mrsbubbletea 2821152@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>But, I think you’ll have to keep buying nipples because they aren’t really supposed to be sterilized. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821151 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:33:11 +0000 SweetiePie 2821151@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sams Mom: Thank you! And of course I got rid of all of mine when I decided not to pump right after he was born. Now I am kicking myself for it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821150 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:32:49 +0000 mrsbubbletea 2821150@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Truth Bombs: the medela bottles would with a different ring! </p> <p>@SweetiePie: they would fit in a dr brown bottle, and in a life factory bottle. They are like the standard nipple shape so nothing wider in the base (like the medela nipple/ring). But you can screw them on medela bottles and basically any of those containers you see from the hospital for pumping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821148 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:31:56 +0000 Sams Mom 2821148@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetiePie: I have the 6-8 oz pumping storage bottles so I'll give them a shot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821147 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:29:34 +0000 SweetiePie 2821147@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sams Mom: that would be amazing, thank you! </p> <p>@Truth Bombs: good to know, thanks! He’s up to 6oz or so per feed, I wonder if it would work with the larger medelas? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821145 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:27:51 +0000 Sams Mom 2821145@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have some of those leftover from our hospital stay and probably 5 million bottle brands before we settled on the one he would use. I'll try them out when I get home this evening to see if they work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821144 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:26:55 +0000 Truth Bombs 2821144@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have personal experience so take this with a grain of salt.... but I met Medela bottles would work. I babysat my Godson the other day and he takes ready to feed when he's away from mom and the ready to feed bottle seemed to be the exact same size of the Medela 2 ounce pumping bottle. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bottles-compatible-with-enfamil-ready-to-feed-nipples#post-2821142 Tue, 08 May 2018 14:24:53 +0000 SweetiePie 2821142@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For whatever reason my 11 week old feeds best from the ready-to-feed bottles (like the ones you get from the hospital) that come with the latex-like nipples. We are 99% sure that it’s the actual nipple he likes since we’ve tried feeding powdered formula from the little bottles and he takes it no problem. It feels pretty wasteful to buy the ready to feeds for an entire year. So I’m wondering if there are any bottles that the nipples will work with? These are the nipples I’m talking about, for reference.</p> <p>[attach=3764/18/p8fcli.337x600.E323577B-41F7-4067-ABD5-97F1C0F14CA1.png] </p>
