5.0 out of 5 stars Great Bottle for mimicking breastfeeding...
I had been exclusively breastfeeding my baby and wanted to introduce a bottle during one nighttime feeding so my husband could help. Our pediatrician said it would be okay to start the bottle when she was 3 weeks old. So I used my medela advanced breastpump to pump milk and then my husband would feed our baby girl the pumped milk using the medela bottles we purchased to...

2.0 out of 5 stars Difficult to get a tight latch. Get the Dr. Brown STANDARD Bottles instead!
I've been using these wide bottles for 3 months. My baby usually first gets a mouthful of the wide base of the nipple, but then his lips slip to the narrow part of the nipple after a few sucking.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Bottle for mimicking breastfeeding..., June 15, 2009
By Kiyomi (Indiana, USA) - See all my reviews
I had been exclusively breastfeeding my baby and wanted to introduce a bottle during one nighttime feeding so my husband could help. Our pediatrician said it would be okay to start the bottle when she was 3 weeks old. So I used my medela advanced breastpump to pump milk and then my husband would feed our baby girl the pumped milk using the medela bottles we purchased to go along with the pump. She ate from these bottles fine but to my horrow slowly started to have problems latching on! Finally we realised it must be the bottles and stopped using them. We were prepared to buy whatever bottles we could find that wouldn't cause nipple confusion as the medela ones had. After a couple days of getting her to latch on again we tried the Dr. Brown's wide-neck natural flow since we had received these as a shower gift and after I read a few reviews online about them not causing nipple confusion. I think they actually helped IMPROVE her breastfeeding suck and latch on, which for a young (3 week old) breastfeeding baby is VERY important! She feeds stronger and remains feeding for a full feeding every time even after using the bottle for a feeding. I may never use another bottle! These are fantastic!! I hope this review helps Any nursing mothers out there ready to introduce a bottle but not give up on nursing. These bottles are wonderful!

2.0 out of 5 stars Difficult to get a tight latch. Get the Dr. Brown STANDARD Bottles instead!, November 10, 2009
By Y.L. (Palo Alto, CA USA) - See all my reviews
I've been using these wide bottles for 3 months. My baby usually first gets a mouthful of the wide base of the nipple, but then his lips slip to the narrow part of the nipple after a few sucking. A lactation consultant suggested I get the STANDARD bottle instead of the WIDE bottle. The reason is sucking on the tip of the nipple promotes the habit for a shallow latch at the breast. So I bought a few Dr. Brown standard bottles and use them along with the wide bottles that I already have. On the standard bottles my baby is able to suck on the whole nipple and get a better seal, thus swallowing less air. My baby is now 3 months old and he prefers the standard bottle to the wide bottle, so we are switching exclusively to the standard ones.

5.0 out of 5 stars From a mother of 5...Dr.Brown's are a must!, May 3, 2009
By Mother of 4 (Abu Dhabi, UAE) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dr. Brown's BPA Free Polypropylene Natural Flow Wide Neck Bottle, 8 oz - 3-Pack (Baby Product)
I decided to try Dr. Brown's bottles with my baby since my previous baby had gas issues. For the first 5 months my baby did have gas and I had to use gas drops.(I believe its because I use powder formula. The country I'm living in only has powder.My first 2 babies used concentrated formula & had no gas.) If I hadn't used Dr. Brown's however her gas would have been worse. I know this because at 4 months, when I needed to change the nipples, I opted to change to another popular brand. (Because I live overseas I would have had to order them on-line and wait.) With the new bottles her gas became worse. I decided to order them and I'm glad I did because when I started using them there was definetly an improvement Now at 6 months she is gas free, but only because I;m using these bottles! I recommend these bottles to everyone!

This review is from: Dr. Brown's BPA Free Polypropylene Natural Flow Wide Neck Bottle, 8 oz - 3-Pack (Baby Product)
I didnt believe by changing bottles my daughter would be spitting up less and less gassy but these bottlesprovided me with just that. She does not take in as much gas as she did with traditional bottles and so does not have those expolosive burps that would sometimes result in her throwing up.
Very happy i have changed to these and i just ordered 3 more. I would say, give them a try and see for yourself.

5.0 out of 5 stars Baby's Best Friend, August 18, 2009
To say that I absolutely love these bottles would be an understatement. After much research and trying out other bottles that failed miserably, I took the plunge and invested in this product. I was apprehensive after a manager from a famous baby store discouraged me from purchasing them stating that the bottles were a hassle because there were so many parts to clean. It is true that there are a couple of extra parts but cleaning and sanitizing them is a no brainer and not anymore effort than a regular bottle. As other reviewers encouraged, I read through and followed the directions. As a result, I have never ever experienced even the slightest hint of a leak - even from the very first feed. Which simply means, don't attach any of the parts until after the bottle has been heated and is ready to be fed to your baby. Of course the best and most important benefit is the comfort it provides my baby's tummy. The last time I fed my daughter with a standard bottle, she was struggling with discomfort from the amount of air that was stressing her poor little tummy. With these delightful bottles, she is so relaxed, her body is not tense and she can peacefully drink her meal without having to constantly stop to be burped. These bottles are magnificent! I'm sorry that I didn't purchase them sooner. Also the wide neck is a dream. No more powdered formula on the counter.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product, January 20, 2009
This review is from: Dr. Brown's BPA Free Polypropylene Natural Flow Wide Neck Bottle, 8 oz - 3-Pack (Baby Product)
We have used Dr. Brown's bottles and nipples since our first daughter was born, for about 5 years.
We would not trade them for anything else. Our kids rarely have gas or colic, and rarely spit-up, even though all 3 have reflux. These bottles are the main reason, in our opinion. Likewise with the nipples. And now the bottles are safer to use, as they are offered in glass and/or bpa-free plastic versions. They are a little pricey, but well worth the investment. We would not trade our Dr. Brown's sets for anything else on the market.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great bottles, January 7, 2009

This review is from: Dr. Brown's BPA Free Polypropylene Natural Flow Wide Neck Bottle, 8 oz - 3-Pack (Baby Product)
We used these for our daughter--almost three now--while she was a baby. She likes the nipples on Dr. Brown's more than anything else (maybe becuse the shape or they were softer). She never had colic and rarely gas--so maybe the bottles helped. I liked the wide-necked ones best for her. The bottles occassionally leaked, but if we made sure all the parts were very dry, it wasn't routine. I'll buy more for my new baby due in April.

4.0 out of 5 stars Love them, December 26, 2008
This review is from: Dr. Brown's BPA Free Polypropylene Natural Flow Wide Neck Bottle, 8 oz - 3-Pack (Baby Product)
Yes, they do leak sometimes but I haven't found anything that is totally leak proof. I think it's b/c it sucks all the air out so the baby doesn't take in the air so when they are finished the air has to come out somehow causing it to slowly leak and push the extra milk out. I'm just very careful to put the disc back in the bottle before I put it in the diaper bag. I have used Dr. Brown's for 2 out of 3 of my kids and I love them. All of my kids spit up a ton and I felt like it helped them have less gas and less spit up.

5.0 out of 5 stars great product, July 22, 2010
This review is from: Dr. Brown's BPA Free Polypropylene Natural Flow Wide Neck Bottle, 8 oz - 3-Pack (Baby Product)
These bottles are great. The help your baby not drink all that air. They are the only bottles i would use for my baby. These bottles dont leak at all so you can take them anywhere with you. The standard dr. brown bottles leaked in my diaper bag and made a huge mess and i have never had any problems with these. Hands down the best bottles.

4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect bottles for any baby!, July 12, 2010

This review is from: Dr. Brown's BPA Free Polypropylene Natural Flow Wide Neck Bottle, 8 oz - 3-Pack (Baby Product)
I am using these bottles since last 7 months and they are fabulous. They say it reduces gas and spit-ups. I am not sure about spit-ups but it sure do reduce gas as it helps not create bubbles. The only thing is: It doesn't fit in my Medela pump, so I have to pump in another bottle and then transfer it to these. If you really like these bottles and pump, use the regular neck Dr Brown bottles.
