5 out of 5 stars Dr. Brown's bottles are a life saver!   December 27, 2008

These bottles definitely help to reduce colic. The thing I love the most about them is the fact they are BPA free. It is nice to know you aren't putting unnecessary chemicals in your baby's body.
These bottles are great because my son had such bad colic he was screaming when he would eat. The vent system in these bottles virtual eliminates any air from getting to your baby's tummy. The only downfall to these bottles is they are a little more labor intensive to wash and put together. You have one or two more pieces to put together over regular bottles. However, if your baby has any amount of colic it is definitely worth the extra few minutes of assembly for their tummy's sake.
One thing to note is at one point they began making these bottles with the ounce markers marked as raised, clear numbers. This made is EXTREMELY difficult to see how full you were filling up the bottle. However, I have since bought some and the markers on them are blue, making it much easier to read the ounces you are making. It is not that big of a deal unless you're doing a 2:30 am feeding and trying to fill the bottle up without being able to see the markings.
Overall, these are the best bottles on the market. They truly do help eliminate colic and keep your baby safe and out of harmful chemicals way like BPA.



5 out of 5 stars I tried others, this is the best   September 24, 2009

Having had a colicy first child, I chose to try the Dr. Brown's bottles in additional to several other types & brands. I've ended up storing all the others and using the Dr. Brown's exclusively.

After reading countless reviews, I've bought and tried several other types/brands. All bottles other than the Dr. Browns created suction. The nipples would collapse, resulting in leaks and a frustrated, gassy baby. I would have to remove the bottle from his mouth to get the air (and bubbles)to go back into the bottle so he could start sucking again. The gas in his belly would last hours-making him uncomfortable and disrupting his sleep. (equals tired, cranky Mommy)

The Dr. Brown's were the only bottles that I didn't have that problem with. My son is able to feed continuously and comfortably with a consistent flow and no air bubbles. Our feedings are cleaner, relaxing, and more comfortable.

Other reviews have sited a "con" as having more bottle parts to wash. I thought that would be tedious, but gave the Dr. Brown's a try anyway. Thus far, it has NOT been an issue. ANY bottle you use will have atleast 3 parts to wash (bottle, collar, nip) the Dr. Brown's have an additional 2 parts (resevoir tube, valve). I am happy to spend an extra minute at the sink, rather than countless hours with a fussy baby. The trade-off is a no brainer.

The ONLY issue that I've had with the Dr. Brown's is that the stage 1 nips still flowed too fast for my newborn. I am using the Playtex Air Vent Stage 1 nips instead. I have not tried the Br. Brown' premie nips, but suspect they'd work just as well. FYI-the Dr. Brown's are slightly taller than other bottles when they have the cap on. Keep that in mind if you're buying a bottle cooler for travel.

Skip the smaller 4oz bottles and go for all 8oz. Buy a soft bottle brush that won't scratch the plastic bottles. Again, I've tried several, but like the Avent brush with travel case. It seems soft, will last and doesn't spray me with water ever time I remove it from the bottle.

Amazon seems to have the best price on Dr. Brown's.
Happy Feeding:)



5 out of 5 stars tried many bottles, this helps with NOT swallowing air.   January 20, 2009

my husband and i tried a few bpa-free bottles: gerber nuk, avent (omg the price!), playtex ventaire, etc. Dr. Brown's really helped with not swallowing air. one thing I do recommend is if you were to buy many of the dr. brown's, to buy all the same type, i.e. purchase all bpa-free ones, or all bpa & pthalate free ones. I recommend only doing the 8oz bottles. My husband and I noticed though the straws and collars/various pieces were "the same", it seemed the tolerances between the pieces (even between the 4oz and 8oz bottles) would occasionally cause it to slightly leak or not vent air properly. It's hard not to mix and match when washing when the pieces look the same. we still recommend these bottles to friends and love them as they do work and the little one is happier.


5 out of 5 stars Great bottles that are worth every cent!   March 14, 2009

After our son was born we used the inexpensive bottles without all the parts to clean because we were going through so many bottles every day. Our son was a very easy baby, but he was a bit fussy every evening for a few hours no matter what we tried. I thought we would give these bottles a try since people told me that babies who are fussy only in the evenings may have gas. After 24 hours of using these bottles he was never fussy in the evenings again! It was amazing! We immediately went out and bought another dozen of these bottles and we'll never use anything else! Our baby is so happy now. Also, these bottles are not hard to clean. I simply put all of the parts in the dishwasher in a little plastic box for bottle parts (Munchkin brand, $3 at Target) and place the inner chamber of the bottle on the dishwasher 'posts'. I did not buy the Dr. Brown's dishwasher piece for the parts.
Try these bottles - you will not be disappointed!



5 out of 5 stars Safe Plastic; Natural Flow; Easy to use/clean...   September 14, 2008

Yes, easy to use and clean. I know it has several parts but if you wash it right after the baby finished her bottle, you simply can rinse it in a warm/hot water and it's clean! If you don't wash it right away it's ok, use some warm/hot water, soap (I buy Planet or other mild soaps) and there are 3 holes in the vent part, brush them with a small brush 1-2 times.. is really easy especially after you do it a couple of times.

The bottle is pretty thick but light. It seems strong and durable.

Baby drinks with no interrupts. I like the natural flow feature of this bottle. If you use just nipple and bottle of other brand with no vent, it creates vacuum and your baby often stops many many times. I did not like that as she got tired faster and never finished her bottle and had to snack more often...

The nipple is soft and it is standard. I like that it is soft breast like (so many other nipple seem so thick). We talked to 3 lactation consultants and they recommended Playtex Drop Ins (wide neck bottles) or in our case, our baby would only drink from Standard nipple/bottle, they always recommended Dr. Browns. So if these are the only 2 bottles I will buy for my children.

I tried every bottle and nipple out there except Avent and Born Free (our lactation consultants really did not recommend them); mixed different bottles with nipples, inserted vent from Dr. Browns into different bottle when they didn't have the safe bottles yet and I was very happy to see these new Dr. browns bottles that are safe for my child.

And one more thing. When we used OTHER bottles they were somewhat hard to wash. Bottles inside would be sticky and we had to brush them for a long time and rinse really well before they felt clean. I never had this problem with Dr. Browns bottles.
