With DS1 & 2 we used the Tommee Tippee ones that had the little parts inside, I think they called them anti colic.
They worked just fine but the ones I have are very old. I tried to buy new but couldn’t find those particular ones.
What’s the latest and greatest bottle? Or, do you have a oldie but goodie rec?
We don’t need a ton of bottles but I want to be prepared in case BFing isn’t a hit this time and I’d just like to get the baby used to a bottle here and there early this time.

We used Phillips Avent bottles. I breastfed and used them for daycare/the occasional bottle at home w Wife when I was at work. DS has zero issues w them. This makes me realize I should probably get new nipples for LO. 🤔

When DS was refusing a bottle I bought a bunch of different types and none worked. Finally it clicked and we just used the medela ones so I could pump directly into it.

hiimjamie we reused nipples and bottles w DS2. If the nipple looked really worn/bitten etc I tossed but the early ones pre teeth were mostly fine. I just sanitized them.

We used Phillips Avent with C.
I hope to reuse the bottles and bought new nipples.

We used Dr Browns with DD1 and DD2 doesn’t seem to have any issue with those. We sanitized the nipples that looked fine and threw out any questionable ones.

I obviously haven't used them yet, but we registered for the Comotomo bottles because they came highly recommended by several friends. I also bought a set of Dr. Brown's just in case. Never heard of comotomo! Going to look those up. There’s always something new out there.

We also used Dr Brown’s and hoping this works this time since we have so many and all the nipple sizes. 🤞🏻

Another Dr.Browns user here! We didn’t use them all too often, since I worked PT and BF most of the time. But DD1 never had any issues with them. A big complaint I usually see about them is all the parts to wash. But I never found it too big of a deal. We just bought the little racks that go in the dishwasher and loaded the parts in there and it was easy-peasy.

I like the Avent Naturals. Hell no to Dr. Brown's b/c I do not want all of those parts. The Avent ones just have the bottle, nipple, and lid. I also liked Joovy Boob bottles but they do have one extra little gray ring that you have to set on the bottle before putting on the lid. I was lucky in that DS1 took any and all types of bottles.

We also use Avent here! Was thinking we’ll probably have to restock a few since some of them have been through both kids now, we’ll see what they look like.

Also Avent Naturals here and I plan on re-using the ones from DS and we kept him on the slowest flow the whole time he used them, maybe up to 10 months or so when we switched to a sippy cup.

Agent Naturals are my go to. I used them very successfully with G and I am using them now with the new baby. G was slightly colicky and they helped with it and don’t have a zillion parts.

Also I did not go any level past 0 for my DD so... DS is 20 months (and yes still drinks out of bottles, don't judge me haha), and he is still using stage 0/1 nipples!

We did Dr. Browns and will be reusing them, assuming the new kid doesn’t object.

We used Medela bottles since I was EPing with a medela pump. DS loved them! I'll be reusing them.
