TYPES OF BABY BOTTLES

Bet you are looking for the best baby bottle for your precious one and still deciding on which brand or type to use.

Just like any new mom, I experienced the same. Good thing I got help from the internet and families and friends.

For my baby girl I use PhilipsAVENT BPA-Free.I change teats depending on my baby's milk consumption. Until three months, she used a PhilipsAVENT BPA-Free Newborn Nipple and at six months we change her teat to Philips AVENT Fast Flow.I also bought a Glass Feeding Bottle and for travel she has Disposable Bottles.
Before shopping for a new baby feeding bottle or teat for your baby you should know the different types of feeding bottles. This will help you decide which baby bottle to use for your precious one. There are different types of baby feeding bottles out in the market. They come in different sizes, shapes and colors.

Common types are the plastic baby bottles and the glass feeding bottles.



Plastic FEEDING BOTTLES are the common bottles you always see in market, usually they come in straight shape and slight curves in the four sides. Plastic baby bottles should be BPA-Free. There is also the angled neck bottles. This type of baby bottle is slightly bent at the shoulder making it easy to hold during feeding time. Moreover, One of the commonly used feeding bottles are those with wide body. These feeding bottles come in wide necks and are shorter compared to the other common bottles in stores.

With the advent of technology, we now have sophisticated baby feeding bottles that have long been available in the market. One example is Dr. Brown's Natural Flow Wide Neck Newborn Feeding Set BPA Free.This baby bottle has an internal vent that minimizes colic. With this vent system, no air bubbles are formed, therefore minimizing gas. There are also other unique designs that are now out in the market.


Also, we have the disposable BABY BOTTLES. Formula or breast milk is poured into a disposable plastic pouch and is placed inside a holder called nurser. This also reduces air bubbles in the sense that the pouch collapses as the baby consumes the milk.

Glass baby bottle is also available. Some parents are concerned about it's safety; However, here are silicone jackets that can be used to avoid such issues. So long as babies are not left alone during feeding time, then there shouldn't be any problem.

These are some of the common baby bottles used by most mothers and are available in the market. It is now up to you to decide which feeding bottle to buy for you little one.

GLASS BABY BOTTLES

As a new mom, I want to give the best for my baby, the best care, the best things and the safe products.

Among the different types of feeding bottles, I learned that glass bottles are more hygiene than plastic ones. BPA-free products are safe to use as well. That is why i decided to buy both types.

I also use glass feeding bottles over just any plastic feeding bottles for one main reason: chemicals. Glass feeding bottles are chemical free and friendly to the environment. Also, it is heat resistant.

If you are concern about the safety of a glass feeding bottle, there are available silicone sleeves that you can use together with your glass feeding bottles. These silicone sleeves are heat resistant as well. They are made odorless and non toxic. Most are designed for secure grip and comfort.
