My daughter was born just over 8 weeks early. After a hard fight for her life, we were able to take her home. I was taking blood pressure medications, and was forced to stop pumping. We searched for a bottle that was not only safe, but easy for her tiny mouth to use, and variable flow that she could handle. We tried all the normal ones, Playtex, Gerber, Medela, and then I found these soothie bottles. She has ONLY used soothie binkies( the little orange ones from the NICU), and refused anything else. I donated everything else we had once I got these. We started with the stage 1 nipple, and now use both 1 and 2 depending on her bottle (she is on Rx formula now). I highly reccomend these to anybody who needs a different bottle for their special baby.  One of my favorite features is the snack cups you can attach to the bottom. I put her formula and duocal supplement in there, then mix with the warm water when I need it! Also the 5 oz size is ideal when you need use 4 oz of water and then add formula/supplemnts. I view that as a "pro" not a "con"...trying to squeeze all that into a 4 oz bottle never worked!
