My older LO was fickle with bottles and we had to change them up frequently! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776996 Sun, 12 May 2013 22:49:07 +0000 LittleFox 776996@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Avent natural and Lansinoh mOmma so far. LO doesn't use bottles often, but they seem to work well enough. We'll see when I go back to work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776987 Sun, 12 May 2013 22:44:59 +0000 doodlepoodle 776987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We started with Similac, no dice. J hated them. Went to Dr Browns but I went crazy with the parts and j wasn't great w/them and made the switch to Nuk and never looked back! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776977 Sun, 12 May 2013 22:38:18 +0000 googly-eyes 776977@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Started with doctor brown (great!) for the first few months and went to playtex drop ins after that for the simplicity. Next time I don't think I will though because I cringe a little with each liner..</p> <p>@photojane: We used doctor brown standard nipples because C didn't usually open her mouth very wide either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776956 Sun, 12 May 2013 22:25:08 +0000 yoursilverlining 776956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We started with Avent but she was a super messy eater with them, which our pedi said was a common complaint. We've been using Dr. Browns since then and love them. They have a lot of parts but we just throw everything but the nipple in the dishwasher so cleaning is about as easy as can be! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776939 Sun, 12 May 2013 21:57:20 +0000 pl0508 776939@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Playtex ventaire ! He loves the wider nipple </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776887 Sun, 12 May 2013 21:19:35 +0000 photojane 776887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For the first 2.5 months Sadie used the Gerber essentials bottles because the little nipples were the only one she could latch onto with her retracted jaw. I loved them... they were only like $3 for 3 bottles &amp; super easy to clean. Now, though, it takes too long to get the formula out of the small nipple &amp; she gets frustrated. We switched to Tommee Tippee &amp; they are awesome. Still on level one of the anti-colic nipples, and they're great. I avoided Dr. Brown's because I'm too lazy to clean all of those parts! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776878 Sun, 12 May 2013 21:12:21 +0000 Weagle 776878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Started with Lansinoh mOmma bottles, now Playtex Ventaire or drop-ins... They use the same nipple. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776875 Sun, 12 May 2013 21:10:45 +0000 BlueWolverine 776875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dr. Brown's. I hate cleaning all the parts, but she takes them well and switches easily from breast to bottle so I don't want to mess with a good thing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776854 Sun, 12 May 2013 20:55:59 +0000 MamaMoose 776854@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Tommee Tippee. She's done great with them. I love that the wide nipple base is more similar to a breast shape. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776852 Sun, 12 May 2013 20:55:29 +0000 Smurfette 776852@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We started with Advent, but now she won't take them. Tried Playtex drop ins, Dr Browns but seems to like Tommee the best now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776848 Sun, 12 May 2013 20:54:39 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 776848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used the playtex drop ins. We were lazy with bottle cleaning, and had 8 bottles and 16 nipples. I liked being able to make 8 bottles at a time (formula fed) and only having to clean them once a day! The drop in liners were convenient, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776845 Sun, 12 May 2013 20:52:47 +0000 ALV91711 776845@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We'd tried Avent, but he really didn't like that. We've tried Nuk and he seems to like it a bit better, but I think it will take some time before he will consistently take a bottle. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776837 Sun, 12 May 2013 20:44:58 +0000 MarieJ 776837@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use dr. Brown's. My LO was a preemie &amp; those seemed to work best for her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776820 Sun, 12 May 2013 20:33:05 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 776820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use avent. Next time, we'll use dr.browns. We used those at first but stopped when he got into bigger bottles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776810 Sun, 12 May 2013 20:22:36 +0000 hilsy85 776810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Avent...he doesn't like them but will take them if necessary. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776799 Sun, 12 May 2013 20:08:31 +0000 petunia354 776799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've had great luck with Dr. Browns. We've used tommee tippee but didn't love them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776790 Sun, 12 May 2013 20:01:56 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 776790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>First we did Advent classic, then Dr. Brown's, currently Tommee Tippee. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776787 Sun, 12 May 2013 19:59:33 +0000 blackbird 776787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're still using the Medela bottles. Nothing fancy and she has zero issue with them (gas, etc) so I'm not inclined to change. </p> <p>We have playtex drop-ins, too, but the nipple base part seems too big for her. She can't seem to get her mouth around it as well as the medela nipples </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776769 Sun, 12 May 2013 19:50:20 +0000 heffalump 776769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We went through a few. Started with breastflow, then drop ins, and ended with playtex ventair. Dh and I are very lazy when it comes to bottle cleaning, so easy to clean was a must. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-kind-of-bottle#post-776671 Sun, 12 May 2013 19:11:08 +0000 lomom 776671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What kind of bottle do you use? Does your LO have a preference?</p> <p>We are currently just attaching a nipple to the medela pumping bottles but are considering switching to the Dr. Browns bottles. </p>
