Customer Reviews

Happier baby!
My baby has reflux and extra gas just makes him completely miserable. We got these bottles when he was 3-weeks old and they really do make a difference! I'm a pediatrician, so I was a skeptic when I read that the bottle claimed to reduce gas/colic. But I think I'm convinced! At the very least, it makes it easier for him to eat since there is no negative pressure created from suction... the food just flows! Thus, the baby swallows less air from the having work so hard to get food. If your baby has reflux or is very gassy, this bottle is definitely worth a try!

LOVE THEM!!
I bought these bottles on a lark. I had read good things about them, but when I went to buy them at my Babies R Us, the only ones I could buy were the wide mouthed bottles. These bottles have a wider nipple that is shaped more like the breast. My son is primarily breast fed, but he has had no problems with these bottles when I don't feed him myself. I started giving him a few ounces of water at 2 weeks old, and he immediately took to these bottles. At one month, I tried to give him a six ounce Platex VentAir bottle after my Babies R Us was out of the larger Dr. Browns bottles. He refused to take to the smaller nipple. I suggest that you do use the wide mouth Dr. Browns bottles, but they are not available online.

I have not had a problem cleaning them at all. The only problem I have had comes when I do give him formula. The instructions say not to shake it in the bottle, so I usually stir it instead. One reviewer mentioned that when you add water, you go over the "Do not fill above this line" mark. I avoid this by measuring my water in a separate bottle, then I add about half the water, stir, then the other half. That has eliminated any problem regarding that mark.

I strongly recommend this product!

NEW MOMS- TRY THESE FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have tried Avent, Ventaire, Platex Nursers, Evenflo, and Gerber and let me tell you Dr. Brown's bottles are THE BEST by far.

My baby was bottle fed from the start and he could not get good suction on the wide nipples that are so popular right now. Therefore, he was swallowing a TON of air and spitting up constantly and always struggling every time I would feed him.

I tried these bottles as a last resort because they are more expensive and have more pieces to clean than other bottles, but it was WORTH every dime and the small amount of extra time to clean. (there are two extra pieces to throw into the dishwasher basket)

My child is relaxed and enjoys his feedings now. He has signifigantly reduced spit up and gas. Isn't it worth the extra time and money to have a happy baby? I recommend that you try these bottles FIRST and save yourself the time of having to switch later. You get what you pay for with these bottles! Another plus is that there are 3 different types of nipples (flex, regular and wide) and 2 types of bottles, wide mouth and regular so you are not limited to one particular type of bottle!
