You can comfort and nourish your baby in many different ways, but breastfeeding is a very special way to do this. Many parents love the feeling of closeness and security that breastfeeding brings.

For many mothers, however, reality can sneak into their baby bliss. Self-care is important! You may have to go away for an extended period of time because of a variety of reasons. Also, if your baby is dependent upon you for their food supply, it’s important that you make sure they can use a bottle.

Talking to a lactation consultant is a great way for your baby to transition from breast milk to bottles. We then compile our Babylist list for the top breastfeeders’ bottles.

Which bottle should I pick?

Decisions, decisions. But don’t be discouraged, mommy we did the research so that you don’t have to. It is important to take into account many things when selecting a bottle. These include price, material and ease of cleaning.

These are our top 8 picks for breastfeeding babies. And remember, finding the right bottle for you + baby often involves a lot of trial and error, so we don’t recommend buying in bulk until you learn what you like!

Chicco Baby Bottle

, your baby’s milk only touches pure Invinci-Glass(tm) glass while the exterior is made with unbreakable plastic. It’s basically? For parents who value the safety and convenience of plastic, it’s the best option. You’d be hard-pressed to believe that the DUO’s bottle materials were also carefully considered. With its unique Intui Lock(tm) Nipple, anticolic valve, breast-like flow and the Intui Liquid(tm), the DUO makes a great choice for breastfeeding babies.

Commentators say, “I have just had my 3rd child. Since I have used Dr. Brown’s bottles for my children with other children, I assumed I would do so again. But, instead of going to the doctor with Dr. Brown’s bottles for my children, I went out and bought Chicco DROO bottles. They are light and simple to clean. Only a few parts are required. The anti-colic properties of the bottles were excellent for my daughter. In fact, I believe she actually likes the shape more than the regular bottles. Also, the glass inside these bottles means that your formula/milk won’t ever touch plastic. The bottles are glass so I was concerned that they might break but it doesn’t. I have dropped mine several times. I’m assuming this is due to the outer layer being plastic. Chicco is doing a wonderful job with this bottle. Because of its slow-flow, Philips Avent Natural Philips Avent Natural was the preferred choice by our lactation consultant. Because the unique petal design of this bottle is flexible and won’t crack, it has an easy-to-clean anti-colic venting mechanism that reduces air intake. BPA-free bottles and glasses are also available. The bottles we tried were all good, but these are the only ones that my baby used (I’m an exclusive bottler). It has the smallest flow, at 0 nipple. However, I must still pace feed it. Pace feeding takes less than five minutes to give my baby 4 oz. It can take up to 10 minutes for pace feeding. Although the nipple is a bit slow, these bottles are among the top-rated we have tried. We’ve also tried more than 20 brands. Comotomo was great, too. However, they are not compatible with my Spectra and fall over very easily. So these win.”- Nim SHOP Lansinoh Momma Breastmilk Feeding Bottle Based on 50+ years of breastfeeding research and designed by a company that’s supported mamas + babies for 35 years, it’s no surprise Lansinoh makes the cut. NaturalWave Nipple – a soft, flexible nipple which ergonomically mimics the natural breast, is what makes it all possible. Children can expel milk using the same technique, whether they’re breastfeed or using a bottle.

Respondents say that people don’t realize how difficult it can be to breastfeed a child. not. take. a. bottle. You can see that we had tried around 20 different bottles and sippy cups. She refused, and I mean knockdown drag out refused ALL of them until this magical bottle. What used to be an hour-long endeavor to get even 2oz of breast milk or formula into this bottle-hating baby has turned into 6+oz in 8 minutes or less. This is amazing. ASTOUNDING. It almost killed me. This bottle is for you, seriously.

Price per 3-pack. SHOP 4. Munchkin’s Latch: Your baby’s latch makes it possible to successfully feed from breast milk or bottles. Munchkin’s Latch is our recommendation. This nipple is designed to act like an accordion, allowing baby to manage the flow of milk and stay latched. One problem is the difficulty in cleaning the anticolic valve. It rests at the bottom of the bottles. However, it is not something that a bottle brush won’t be able to handle.

Reviews say that they have tested every brand of baby formula with their daughter. One of her responses was that she wouldn’t drink any. But she took this one. Because she moves a lot when eating, the bottle’s nipple is very flexible. Many others are too rigid and she would spit them out immediately. We spent a lot of money on other bottle claiming to be the best for breastfed babies, and they just didn’t work out for us. So glad that we found this one!” Jlg1014 (Price is for 3-pack) SHOP 5. Comotomo Many things are great about the Comotomo bottles. The Comotomo bottle is made of silicone, which mimics mom’s breasts and makes it comfortable for children to hold. The super-wide neck design means it’s simple and easy to clean no bottle brush needed, you can just stick your hand right in there!

The microwave-, dishwasher-, and sterilizer safe features of this unit are all included. There are also two integrated anti-colic ventilations that work without extra parts. This is another win in the “easy clean” category. Win, win and win.

Commentators say that they are unsure where to start. First, these saved my life. My daughter was exclusively BF for 6 weeks, when I had to go back to work I attempted to give her a bottle and to my shock, she did not want it. Eight different bottles were tried and failed to work. It was a complete disaster! I spent many hours and a lot of money hoping to find the perfect bottle for her and nothing. A post I did on a Facebook group for breastfeeding moms was recommended by one mom. So I gave the Comotomo bottle a shot and it worked. It worked !!!! It worked! She was successful in transitioning into a bottle, and she was able for me to return to work with no concern that my daughter was hungry at daycare. It was a little difficult for her to drink as I had the glass up all the way. Jazmin B.

How do you choose the best bottles for breastfeed babies?

The best bottles for breastfed babies support breastfeeding instead of undermining it. These wonderful bottles accomplish this.

Updated on September 11, 2019

The best breastfeed is, of course. It’s best to nurse your infant, even if it’s not going back to work. It’s fine! What are the best breastfeed bottles?

It is important to understand which bottles you should use if there are commitments you cannot make that would prevent you breastfeeding your baby from breast. You can still have a solid breastfeeding relationship when you’re gone, thanks to a variety of great options.

Low Flow, Baby-Controlled or Normal Flow

When baby is at the breast, he is able to control the flow of milk with his suck. Bottles on the other side often pour milk directly into the baby’s mouth without allowing them to stop. It also takes work from baby to get milk from the breast, which strengthens and develops the baby’s palate, as well as gives him a form of exercise (watch how newborns will “sweat” sometimes when nursing!) Babies who have bottles throughout the day may not be able or willing to drink enough milk. This is not good news if your goal is to keep a close nursing relationship, and not only pump.

The term “nipple miscommunication”, which is something we often hear about when trying to get a bottle for our babies, could actually be more of an issue with flow. Bottles are more convenient for some babies who don’t have the need to make as many effort getting milk. Babies love to drink milk from bottles that are low-flow or controlled for their babies. The best thing for babies is to choose an infant or preemie naple. This will slow down milk flow and help baby retain their sucking muscles.

Top Bottles for Breastfeeding Babies, Even The Tightest Ones

This post will help you find the best bottle for your baby if you’re starting to look for the perfect bottles. BOTTLES – Why?

You’re probably very busy, so you won’t be able to think about bottles in plural.

It’s my wish that I could say it would work. It’s guaranteed to work.

Boo.

No. Each baby is different. Breastfed babies are especially unique. You might find them choosy when it comes to the type of bottle they accept.

Have a good laugh with me. How do you choose your beverage of choice? You might prefer beer from the tap if you drink it. And imagine that for a very long time, you ONLY had beer from the tap. Then, someone offered to bring you beer from the can. It wasn’t at the right temperature. You would probably refuse.

Pepsi will be my comparison because I amn’t a big beer fan. Pepsi straight from the fountain is what I love. It would not surprise me that I could only drink a cold Pepsi at the fountain and refuse to accept a cold Pepsi out of a glass.

That’s your baby. Nursing is soothing, warm and beautiful. An artificial nipple can sometimes be too much for babies. (Seriously. My very first child survived for only about 60 days. But the fake naple was a complete insult. The bottle should be made to support breastfeeding. It will try to mimic breastfeeding by latching. It’s also important to have a little patience. It might take a little while to find the best bottle for your breastfeeding baby.

Although choosing the best bottle is crucial, it’s not enough. Learn everything about breast-feeding by bottle in this article.

It’s important that you find the right pump for your baby. You should also consider this on-demand and online breastfeeding class for people who just started breastfeeding. The class is online and available at your convenience.

The Avent Natural has almost everything that you might need in a bottle. Moms love that it is easy to mimic a natural breastfeeding latch and prevent nipple confusion, and it has innovative AirFlex vent technology to prevent baby from swallowing air.

This bottle is known for its quality and comfort.

And bonus! It’s easy to clean.

Let’s talk about the Comotomo.

This bottle is genius. It’s got all of the basics that you would want in a bottle for your breastfed baby (features like a naturally shaped nipple, 2 anti-colic vents) but this bottle has so much more.

The actual bottle is made of a “soft and squeezy” skin-like material designed to soothe and calm baby because of its resemblance to the breast. The bottle is not only soothing for baby but also allows you to simulate letdown by gently squeezeding it. For breastfeeding babies, it is the perfect bottle.

Breastfeeding bottles are made so the baby must work for the milk (so that they don’t like the bottle). It is possible to put a little milk in baby’s mouth with the Comotomo. Although the Comotomo was not available when I had my first child, it is something that I would love to have. This would have been the perfect bottle for her bottle-hating self.

The skin-like silicone material, which is extremely safe, doesn’t leak according to most mothers, and can be easily cleaned with your hands. What?! I’m always kind of grossed out by bottle brushes because they just don’t seem completely sanitary, so this is a big plus.

Breastfeeding But Need To Introduce A Bottle To Your Baby?

Even though breastfeeding can be difficult, it’s possible to do so at times that you need. Allow your baby to have a sippy cup.

You might be returning to work, have an important event, or want to share the burden of feeding your family (another 3am meal anyone?).

No matter your reason for breastfeeding (which may take as long as six weeks to establish), you can offer bottles along with breastfeeding. But it is best to keep breast milk exclusive for six to eight months.

However, not all bottles can be used equally so we picked the best (with help from MFM testers) to simplify mixed and combination feeding.
