born free! the nipples are slower and they have an air vent system to reduce air intake. they have more parts to wash and are a bit pricey but i love them.

Born free or Dr.Brown’s. Both are great!

I think it won’t matter as long as its BPA free….you just have to try out different ones and see which your baby likes more. The born free ones are over priced if you ask me! Especially when you can get a Gerber Clearview bottle thats BPA free & only costs $2.99.

Born Free are good. I think Dr. Brown only has glass bottles that are BPA free. If you feed breastmilk from a bottle, glass bottles are not good because glass breaks down enzymes present in breast milk. Stick to plastic bottles if you store or feed breastmilk from the bottle.

the bottle i would suggest that is similar to Born Free and Avent bottles…
Gerber Gentleflow. you can even use Avent nipples. they are much cheaper than Born Free.
the plastic it is made of does not contain BPA.

I do not bf myself so can’t give you any personal experience, but have read some good reviews on Adiri bottles. They are supposedly very much shaped like a mother’s breast and ease the switch between breast and bottle.
Here’s some links so you can see:

Well first of all, how are you storing your breastmilk? If you are storing it in the pre-sterilized plastic bags, then I would suggest finding a bottle where you can drop in the liners. It’s much simpler and then you don’t have to worry about BPA. And you don’t have to keep transferring the milk from one place to another.
If you are storing it in bottles, you can still use a “drop-in” liner system such as Playtex drop-ins.
Good luck.
