4.0 out of 5 stars Mother of Twins, November 10, 2008

We have twins and these have been, honestly, great! We first tried them at about 1 month (corrected age - they were 3 months premature) and for as much as they sucked, they just weren't getting enough to come out. It was VERY, VERY slow to feed them this way and we gave up. Since then, and thinking about it and looking at the nipples these come with, we realized the nipples are too slow of a flow (for our babies, at least). All we did was swap the nipples that came with them with other nipples we received from the hospital when they were discharged (many other nipples work, too, like Dr. Brown's... ) and they worked PERFECTLY! Now they are 4 months corrected age, and these bottles are even better. Sometimes you have to put it back in when the baby lets it come out, but other than that, they are a lifesaver. Also, we find, when they are really hungry, they rarely let the paci come out.

Also, you DON'T have to suck any of the milk out yourself... like someone else said, you can just squeeze the nipple a couple times and also it helps to hold the bottle up above your baby's head when they first start sucking (to help get the milk up), after that, you just set it down beside them and they suck away. We've never had a problem with the milk "not staying in the nipple" like someone else mentioned.

I should also add that we use them almost every time we are out and about. And, nearly every time we've been out and people see our twins eating while in the stoller, they stop and ask where we got them.

Again, our babies are 4 months now and they have no problems with these.

We are definitely very happy with this purchase (and are back on Amazon.com to order some more)!!

5.0 out of 5 stars FANTASTIC invention!, August 29, 2007

First, to all the parents who are sucking on the bottle to 'get it started' for your babies - STOP. LOL, all you have to do is squeeze the nipple once or twice, which pushes the air down and pulls the liquid up. If you read the insert that comes in the package, you would discover that for yourself.

The Podee has been a lifesaver for us. It's great for traveling. We use it when our baby is in her car seat or stroller. It's great for late night feedings when you're drowsy and baby is hungry. How many times have we all nodded off a bit and dropped the bottle? Too many times to count. Now, I can hold and rock my daughter comfortably while she eats without worrying about nodding off and upsetting the mood.

Everytime I am out in public and my daughter is in her stroller happily sucking away on the Podee, people are amazed by this device, most have never seen it before, and everyone wants to know where to get it!

Prior to buying the Podee I had a very difficult time feeding my infant daughter a bottle when we were on the road, because I wasn't always in the back seat of the car with her and she was not yet old enough to hold her own bottle. Around the time she turned 6 months old I came across the Podee hands free bottle at the baby store and decided to give it a try. Turns out it worked beautifully for us! The baby just sucks on the nipple (like a pacifier) and the milk will flow without them actually having to hold the bottle up to their mouth. On the downside, you might have to get it started for them by sucking some of the initial air out, but that's not really a big deal. It was definitely a lifesaver on our road trips! As a sidenote, we now have a newborn son and when we tried to use the bottle with him at 2.5 months old he was unable to manage it. Perhaps it works best with slightly older (6 months or more) babies. It is definitely worth trying, because when it works it is great!
