Top Brand Baby Bottle Reviews

I recently went through the experience of trying different bottles. If you have a fussy baby then you can understand the need to try anything that will help calm them down. The right bottle can make a big difference. My little one had very bad gas pains that made him very fussy so I tried 4 different bottle brands until I settled with two that I liked best.

Avent Bottles
These bottles are popular in Europe, made in England these bottle are supposed to reduce colic. It is specially designed to push the air out of the nipple. I used these bottle exclusively for the first month after my son was born. The bottles worked out great and he had no nipple confusion while I also nursed some of the time. What's nice about the Avent bottles are that they have a nice line of coordinating products such as the Microwave Steam Sterilizer and a Bottle warmer. These bottles are great at reducing some air with less bottle parts to wash!

Playtex Premium Nursers
These are bottles that are wide-neck bottles that are to be used with pre-sterilized disposible linersd. I received free samples of these bottles in the mail. At first I really liked these bottles. The liners allow you to remove all of the air and reducing the amount your precious baby swallows. Many times though, I found it is very difficult to get the air out of the bag liner and the bottles ended up very leaky or worse sometimes the liner full of formula would come out of place and spill everywhere. Bottom line: If you want to reduce baby gas, and you have the patience to carefully remove the air from the liner and also want less bottle parts to wash, this bottle may be for you.

Dr. Brown's Natural Flow
About after a month my son was born is when his fussiness peaked, my friend recommended these bottles to reduce the gas that was causing his fussiness, so I quickly purchased a 3 pack of the Dr. Brown's wide neck bottles. After a month of using the Avent bottles I switched to Dr. Brown's, still using the Avent bottles once or twice a day. What an amazing difference in my son, these bottles really do reduce gas. After switching to these bottles I was able to stop putting Infant Mylicon in each bottle feeding. What makes Dr. Brown's bottles different is the patented airflow insert which is design to push air to the bottom of the bottle.
