Our Top 10 Newborn Baby Bottles

Top 10 Favourite Baby Bottles from Newborn

This week we have done some research on what the top 10 favourite baby bottles are amongst new Mums. Every baby will feed differently and so there are a choice of bottles with different features which will support how your baby feeds or prefers to feed.

This could be:

  1. Babies suffering from Colic and wind.
  2. Breast to bottle
  3. Pace feeding ( to enable a comfortable feeding position)
  4. Reflux baby-(aiding feeding in a sitting up position)
  5. Combination feeding
  6. Night-time feeding

(Glass bottles have started to make a comeback due to environmental concerns with plastic bottles. Have a read of this article from the Tommee Tippee website for the pros and cons of plastic V glass:

10. HEVEA GLASS BABY BOTTLE

The Hevea Glass Bottle comes with a rubber cover so if you do dop it, it will not shatter. The teat is made with natural rubber so will feel softer than the silicone teats. Its an attractive bottle but Mums have said this brand is quite expensive.

9. DR BROWNS OPTIONS+ ANTIC COLIC BOTTLE

3. TOMMEE TIPPEE CLOSER TO NATURE BOTTLE

2. PHILIPS AVENT ANTI COLIC BOTTLE

This is a plastic bottle which is BPA free and dishwasher safe. It has the antic colic vent, which can be removed if colic reduces. Mums have said this is a good all-round regular baby bottle. I(t’s the bottle I used when my children were babies!)

1. MAM EASY START ANTI COLIC SELF STERILISING BOTTLE

This is a plastic bottle which is BPA free and dishwasher safe. It has a self-sterilising feature when used in the microwave which has proved very popular as it makes it easy to use and saves time by not having to use a steriliser! Some said the teat could be flatter.

It has an antic colic vent which reduces bubbles. Teats are made from silicone which is soft on baby’s skin. It seems to be the favourite!

It is worth saying again, that every baby is different and it may take a few practices with different bottles to see which one is best for them.

It is also worth considering, if you are combination feeding, you may need to buy slower and faster flow teats, as formula milk is a thicker consistency to breast milk.

We hope you have enjoyed reading out Top 10!
