Had no idea what these were! Now that I know, I never had a need for these and I pumped for 9 months at work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-pump-at-work-3#post-2871817 Wed, 13 Feb 2019 14:48:30 +0000 Sams Mom 2871817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shabang: that is amazing! But it's the little "feet" you put on your bottles so they don't tip.</p> <p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Medela-Breastmilk-Container-Bottle-Stand/dp/B00ZSRKH58" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/Medela-Breastmilk-Container-Bottle-Stand/dp/B00ZSRKH58</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-pump-at-work-3#post-2871815 Wed, 13 Feb 2019 14:43:32 +0000 shabang 2871815@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't even know what bottle stands are.

I always liked the idea of glass over plastic </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-pump-at-work-3#post-2871656 Tue, 12 Feb 2019 17:50:57 +0000 Sams Mom 2871656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsbells: I love them! I could put them on the bottle jets in my dishwasher on sanitize steam clean, and didn't have to worry about the discolored cloudy look plastic gets. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-pump-at-work-3#post-2871655 Tue, 12 Feb 2019 17:47:07 +0000 Mrsbells 2871655@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sams Mom: Oh that sounds cool I didnt even realize Avent had glass bottles!</p> <p>@kiddosc: Good point its usually when they are empty that they are the most likely to tip. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-pump-at-work-3#post-2871653 Tue, 12 Feb 2019 17:38:59 +0000 Sams Mom 2871653@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought medela to avent bottle adapters and pumped into the 9 oz glass bottles (I only pumped one side at a time though so didn't have to worry about all the weight hanging off of a hands free bra). They were heavy enough that I never had any tipping problems. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-pump-at-work-3#post-2871652 Tue, 12 Feb 2019 17:36:10 +0000 kiddosc 2871652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never had any problems with the bottles tipping once they had liquid in them. As little as an ounce was enough to stabilize them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-pump-at-work-3#post-2871651 Tue, 12 Feb 2019 17:33:50 +0000 Mrsbells 2871651@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you take bottle stands with you to work? I am back at work now and have been debating whether I should buy an extra pair. I have the medela sonata pump which is a bit top heavy and I keep thinking the bottles will tip over. But on the other hand I wonder if I really need it. I wonder if I should carry my stands from home with me each day or buy another set since I have two sets of pumping parts. </p>
