Are you supposed to squeeze the air out of the Playtex bottles with disposable liners?

Question

If so, it gets really hard when there's not a lot of milk left. I've taken the top half of the bottle completely off so I can reach!

Answer

Yes. Before you first give it to baby, push it all the way until a little liquid comes out, that's how you'll know all the air is out. Then it should collapse on itself as baby drinks. When you take breaks for burping, put the lid back on the bottle so that it doesn't fill back up with air while sitting there, it's a pain to push the air out when using the 8 oz bottles and it's half empty so putting the lid on should prevent you from having to do that. If your baby is eating less than 4 oz each feeding be sure and use the smaller size bottle, otherwise it's pretty much impossible to push all theair put since your hand doesnt fit up inside the 8 oz bottle.

I have noticed this time around the bags dont collapse as well as with my last baby. I dont know if they changed the design of them or what.  I'm going to try a couple of the off brand liners and see if they collapse better because the playtex ones are kind of stiff.
