http://www.viewpoints.com/Baby-Bottles Mon, 21 Jul 2008 13:19:43 GMT Reviews about Baby Bottles http://www.viewpoints.com/BornFree-9-oz-Baby-Bottle-review-4ec71 I was so worried about the BPA affects I decided to throw out my son's Avent bottles & went to Target to purchase a few Born Free 9 oz bottles. I bought 4 and all four bottles leak! I have let others try to put them together, but same problem. Everyone that has tried it has ended up saying "these bottles suck"! They are fine as long as my son has it in his mouth it only slightly leaks every so often, but when you set the bottle down there is a gush of milk that comes out of the white ring. I have tried wiping it out before use, yet I still have the same problem. I am so ready to throw these out & go dig in the trash to find my good bottles. I was always told never to heat up bottles in the microwave which is the BPA problem, since it doesn't give a consistent temperature. My son is also able to pull the nipple out while he has the bottle since the ring does not hold the nipple in place as well as the avent bottles. —...

I find that my daughter does not have a problem switching from breast to bottle using these. I have tried other brands and she didn't do well with them. They are very convenient and easy to use. —...

My wife wanted to nurse our Daughter, but also needed a break at the end of the day from the 14 or so feedings! She turned to her trusty pump and, what I like to call, the greatest invention known to the parent, the Drop-Ins! She pumps into them and all I have to do is drop it into a bottle, heat it up in some water and I'm off and running. These aren't messy, don't leak, and save my wife from having to hand wash yet another baby item! This is a real must have! —...

With the soft latex sippy top its heavy duty but great for the youngest baby. My breastfed daughter didn't like bottles so I tried this to introduce her to a sippy cup. She took to it very well and wont drink from any other sippy. She loves to hold the cup by the handles. — I haven't had any leaks from the sippy at all and the handles come off for easy storage in your diaper bag. Even though the price is about six dollars, I feel it is well worth the price. I have been able to find the cup at Walmart and drugstore.com. — A definite must!! —...

The biggest pro is that it decreases the gas swallowed by the baby.  However, it's really not less washing.  Milk still gets around the rim of the bottle, so I still end up washing the entire bottle.  So that part doesn't set it apart from other bottles.  A few times people have pushed a little too hard on the bottom of the liner to push out the air and it exploded and spilled all over the place.  Also, all of the bottles come with the low flow nipples.  But, they're working well.  My son takes them well.  It seems cleaner since each one gets a new liner. —...

I didn't have 7,000 bottles cluttering up my cabinets, just 12. The interchangeable liners are so nice. You can take one bottle with you and a couple bags and your set. I breastfed all 3 of my children. I'd pump and store in a quart size plastic juice container, and when it was time to go out for the evening with my husband, made life much easier. Never had to worry about if there was enough for the baby while I was out or anything. Having parents who are older they loved not having to deal with normal baby bottles. Just dispose of the liner and wash the nipple. Done. The nipples are similiar to my own so my children took to them much better then the normal bottles. Everyone got a chance to feed them (which after the first one, I was all for someone else feeding for a...

They help my baby eat a good amount ! They give her less gas!!And she can still breastfeed!! They are awesome! I love them! I would love to tell any and everyone to use these! They are fast, easy and you don;t have to spend as much time cleaning them!...

I do not recomend the 8 oz glass bottles because they are heavy. The 4 oz glass ones are...

The Munchkin bottle brush is by far the best there is! Not only does it add color to your kitchen:), but it's bristles are sturdier than the others that I have tried. In fact I soak it in hot water with the bottles for a while so it slides into the bottles more easily. The sturdy bristles get the bottles cleaner than other brands and the handle is shaped perfectly so that you can maneuver the brush into the edges of the bottle. The hidden nipple brush is awesome and it has a suction cup bottom, so you won't misplace it. As bottle brushes go, this one lasts longer than any of the others did and I am so pleased with Munchkin that I've stopped trying other brands! —...

The formula that ended up working best for her was the liquid version of Enfamil Lipil Nutramigen. The powder constipated her, but she was still very gassy. Her pediatrician recommended Mylicon and excercises to help relieve the pressure, but she was still so uncomfortable all the time. Thank goodness we found Dr. Brown's bottles! After the first feeding using the Dr. Brown's bottles we noticed a difference. They really made her sensitivity manageable and she is a much happier baby. The bottles are also more narrow than other brands, and now that she's older she seems to like holding these better than others, as do I whenever I feed her. Another bonus is that they also now make a BPA free version of the...

The Avent drop in system was the first I used because it was given to me as a gift at my baby shower. I have recently learned that some sompanies are now using PBA free platic in their bottles because there could be a health risk to our children. — Research is now being done and I am not sure of the details but I no longer want to use those bottles because  of the supposed health risk. I don't feel that I am a hysterical mom, just alert and aware and conscious. — I do however like these easy drop in system and find my son has enjoyed the nippl eto the bottle —...

So easy to use and clean up is a breeze. My parents used these for my sister too (30 years ago) and they are still simply the best. —  The only negative is the drop ins can get pricey after a while so watch for sales and coupons. —...
