Great for baby who breast feeds Jan 02, 2011
By Freddiecat We just started pumping and introducing a bottle in preparation for my return to work. Our 4 1/2 week old daughter took this bottle with zero hesitation and is now going back and forth between breastfeeding and bottle beautifully. All the parts sounded intimidating but are actually very easy to use and clean. Neither my husband or I had ever bottle fed a baby before, and we figured it out without difficulty.
For any other first-time, clueless parents out there: this set comes with a size 1 (newborn)nipple attached to each bottle (5 total) and 2 size 2 nipples that are extras. I didn't see anywhere in the description that said the size 1's were included (just listed the size 2 nipples)and having never done this before we didn't realize the Size 1's came as part of the bottle, so I ordered the newborn size separately. Oops, but we'll use them.

Love the idea, but the nipple gags my baby May 20, 2010
By Ploobs I have been looking for a bottle that my daughter will not reject. My daughter was using The First Years Breastflow BPA Free Starter Set, but suddenly rejected the bottle. We noticed that she became very gassy with those bottles, so tried the Dr. Brown's bottles, which were recommended by my home daycare provider. I believe that the venting system is important, as the Breastflow nipple would collapse completely while she was drinking, making it harder to draw milk. However, the nipple on the Dr Brown's bottle was so long and narrow my daughter would gag regularly as the nipple hit the back of her throat.
The bottle also leaked from the sides/vent after returning to an upright position even though I filled the bottle below the max fill line.
A little advice: if you are trying to find the perfect bottle for your baby, keep in mind that all babies are different. My son would take ANY bottle without a problem, and now my daughter is on her 4th bottle, and I still haven't found the perfect one. Both of my children were breastfeeding exclusively at the time. I suggest buying single bottles at a store and trying it before ordering large starter kits.

Best buy for breastfed babies Apr 05, 2010
By KH
"new mom"
I recently purchased the BreastFlow by First Years for my 3 wk son. He seemed to drink pretty well from them, but the flow was too fast and the nipples seem to collapse. It was kind of a pain to squeeze the nipple to get the milk back into the bottle.
My friends told me about the Dr. Brown bottles and showed me the nipple flow. I bought some based on my friends recommendation and have fell in love with the bottles. My son drinks slower, has less gas, and does not spit up as much. I would highly recommend these bottles to anyone who breastfeeds and pumps, or breast and formula feed. My son did not realize he was full for 10-15 minutes after using the BreastFlow bottles, with the Dr. Brown's (because of the slower flow nipples that simulate the actual breast flow speed) my son realizes he is full soon after his feeding.
Definately worth the money, wish I would have known about the differences in the compared products nipple flow and I wouldn't have wasted my money on the BreastFlow bottles.
The only downside to the Dr. Brown bottles is that it is more time consuming to wash the bottles because of the extra pieces, but that is minor compared to the satisfaction my son receives from each feeding due to the nipple flow and decreased air intake.

Excellent bottles Feb 24, 2010
By J. Fulmer

The Dr. Brown bottles were recommended to me by a friend with a special needs child who had done a lot of research. And I must say he was right. Even with the extra parts (which are necessary for the vacuum-less bottle design), I haven't had any problems with the bottles. No leaks, cleanup is easy, and our baby (our second) took right to them.
I will say one thing: You really need a dishwasher and the dishwasher basket to wash these effortlessly. Otherwise there are a bunch of parts to keep track of. Also, you should rinse the bottles after use. Milk is hard to clean off anything after it has dried.
I have been very happy with these and can recommend them wholeheartedly.

Best bottles by far! Mar 18, 2009
By Arie I have been through a ton of BPA free bottles and this is by FAR the best one yet. My baby loves these bottles and they clean up great. Yes, there are many parts but clean up is a breeze! I would MOST definitely recommend these!!!
