Different Bottles?
Posted: 03-29-06 14:47pm

My baby shower isnt until next weekend but already so far I have gotten different bottle types.. I have a couple gerber transition bottles with like 8 - 12 extra nipples for them.. And I have playtex advance bottles.. The ones with ventalation on both ends so they get less air, not the liners.. And then I have avent bottles!!! And im sure I will get others at my shower...

Can I use all my bottles? Or what? Cuz I know your supposed to stick with one kind of formula.. And I have different kinds of that too.. But I figure ill just take the ones I dont chose to wal-mart and exchange them for the kind I am going to use

Babies get picky on the nipples - but all the bottles are fine to use. Use whatever bottle is easiest to clean ;)

So as long as the baby takes it I can use them all if I wanted?

I am going to try to use all avent bottles, but if I get others I will use them too. I will just use the nipples that the baby likes and swap them out from bottle to bottle

Hi There

Hey

i just took an infant course in college and learned that any nipple is good, it's good to switch the nipples and choose the one your baby takes to the best. It is also a safety issue, it's good to change your bottles and nipples too, because this ensures that alot of bacteria will not build up.. The more nipples the better, because you can change them often.

Take care,

I've actually been told that the .Dr .Brown bottles work miracles!! The nipples are inter changable...And hopefully they work, cuz I put them on my registry!!

I plan on using all avent bottles. When I was a nanny for newborn twins that's what they used. And they're easy to clean because they're short and wide.

I used all avent the first time 'round with my son. With my daughter I used a variety of different bottles and teats. I also swapped formula from time to time. It was all the same really. It's handy to use bottles where you can pick up "spare parts" in the swupermarket while you are doing your groceries.

Given we are now having twins- i'm sure i'll be using anything and everything !!!!!!

My mom tried like three different formulas before finding the right one that didnt' make my little sister gassy, puke, and just worked with her system. We shall see I guess.
