bottles for breastfed babies?

Question

Hello all, I'm starting to look at bottles for babies who are breastfed. I'm determined to breastfeed but want to also express and have a few by the bottle daily for dad bonding etc. I am nervous that the baby won't take to the bottle and seen some brands online of bottles that are designed for breastfed babies. I've seen the comotomo bottles and the medela calma bottles? Do you all have any thoughts or experiences?

Answer

My LO has taken a bottle since day one and doesn't have a problem breastfeeding or latching. We use dr browns with size 1 nipple. The biggest thing regardless of which bottle you use is to make sure you pace feed. Sit baby up and only fill the nipple halfway so baby does the work to get it out. I think as long as you have a slow flow nipple and a vented bottle you should be ok

Answer

My LO didn't care and was bottle fed from week 2. But my friend's daughter refused to take bottles at all. I finally had her try the como tomo bottle. Baby loved it, and we as mom's love that it's boil-safe and easy to wash. You can even purchase training handles for later.

Answer

Lansinoh

Answer

I would say exclusively breast feed for a week or two to make sure they have a good latch then introduce a bottle. Avent and como tomo are suppose to be good for breastfeeding babies

Answer

I would recommend the Comotomo and Avent Natural, but my baby will basically take anything, lol.  Some babies are pickier than others.

Answer

Mine took to dr browns but not avent

Answer

My baby isn't too picky but we use the nuk! He seems to latch on to that one the best. There's no pulling that one out of his mouth!

Answer

Medela bottles all the way! They are lower flow so more similar to the breast. Be sure to introduce the bottle fairly early if you want to bottle feed and nurse. The longer you wait the more resistance you may face.

Answer

We have used the Calma nipple with great success. He goes back and forth almost everyday and has for the last 4 months. It's great to have grandma and grandpa watch our little guy and know he will be 'a okay'!!!

Answer

I'm at still pregnant so only take this with a grain of salt. But I'm part of a mommy and me group and they all swear the tommee tippee are the best for breast fed babies. They said make sure mom is out of the room a few couple times the baby uses the bottles otherwise they will smell u and will want what's on tap. Also always use a newborn nipple- don't change they r closest to the breast and will make them work for the bottle as well ;) again I'm still pregnant but I am going to try what all 14 woman suggested ;) 
Also just googled the Como tomo bottles I'll check that out too- never heard of them
