This is the most wonderful bottle for breastfeeding EVER!! We have tried every type of bottle on the market with my 3 month old son and he would not take any of them. I heard about this bottle and ran right out to get one, although I wasn't too hopeful. I got the 5 oz size. I warmed my pumped breastmilk and my husband put the nipple in his mouth. He took it immediately, with absolutely no complaints at all. Also, he went right back to the breast for the next feeding with no problems.

I am amazed and so excited. I can now leave the house for more than 1.5 hours without the baby and be assured that he will not starve!

We started using this bottle for my 5 week old son because we have to supplement him with formula. He's only been using it for about a week and now he doesn't want anything to do with nursing, he screams and pulls away until I give him the bottle. I'm pretty sure it's because the nipple on the bottle is faster than I am and he is impatient. Also although it is a good design idea, the outer nipple is soft so it constantly collapses and I have to pull it out of his mouth until it pops back up, which makes him scream again. Now I have to find something that will help with getting the nursing back on track.

This is the most amazing bottle on the market. Next best thing to God's own creation. Thank you First Years....

This bottle is the best hands down for any nursing mom. There is no nipple confusion, even as early as a couple of days old. It even has a "let down" feature!! I have recommended this bottle to everyone I know having a baby, and so far everyone has came back saying they love it too!!

Great nipple for breastfeeding, bad bottle for the BPA, BUT, can create a perfect BPA free system with the AVENT liners which are BPA free. They fit perfectly and haven't leaked a drop. I love the design of this nipple and the fact that my baby doesn't leak my hard earned pumped breastmilk. It also doesn't let the milk flow too fast for a breastfed baby like most slow flow newborn nipples do. My 3 month old was overwhelmed with the fast flow of Medela's newborn nipples; she would furrow her brow and look panicked, with the Breastflow she looks content, like she does breastfeeding.

I already use these bottles (they're wonderful) and ended up on Amazon because I needed to order more. According to the description and box image available, these are not the BPA-free offering that is sold in stores and on the official Learning Curve website. There is no way I will buy these bottles from Amazon. regardless of the price (which is actually slightly more than they are going for on the official site). There is no reason Amazon should still be selling these old bottles when the BPA-free offering is now available.

After trying countless bottles a friend suggested these because she was having the same problem I was that my daughter did not like the tough nipples because she was so used to the breast. She loves these bottles, she is now 6 months old. I am trying to wean her and these have been really helpful, I highly recommend them. The only downfall is that you have to put them together correctkly or they will leak.

I bought these bottles because my baby is breast fed and will not take a bottle. i have tried all the bottles including nuk and other similar name brand bottles. She would not take none of them including this one. The nipple collapses very easy, so you are constantly taking the bottle in and out of the babys mouth.

MY 7 MONTH OLD WANTED NOTHING BUT THE BREAST. I TRIED ATLEAST 6 TYPES OF BOTTLES WITH NO LUCK. WELL I GOT THE BREASTFLOW IN LAST NIGHT AND SHE ACTUALLY TOOK IT!!! I I WAS SO AMAZED I CALLED EVERYONE BECAUSE I WAS SOO EXCITED.NOW I CAN LEAVE THE HOUSE WITH OUT MY DAUGTHER FOR MORE THE 2 HOURS AND NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT HER GOING ON A HUNGER STRIKE!!! YAY!

I was very worried about the "flow" of other bottles when it came time for me to go back to work and have my son drink pumped milk. Everytime my son had a chance to eat from a bottle he would absolutely CHUG it!!!!! This bottle allows him to drink more slowly (about 5oz in 20-25 minutes). However, it did make him a bit "burpier" than when he nursed.
