Medela Slow Flow Feeding & Storage Bottles, 3 Pack of 5 Ounce Bottle with Nipple, Lids, Wide Base Collars, and Travel Caps, Made Without BPA

My baby nursed for several months but eventually I had to go back to work, which meant that I had to pump breast milk for her. I tried several bottles but she refused all of them except for these ones. I don’t know what it is that she didn’t like about the others but she took to medela nipples with no problem. We’ve used them for several months now and they’ve hold up well. The size is perfect and the flow is too. At the beginning I had problems where the nipples would collapse when she starts sucking but I fixed that by loosening the cap a little bit- it lets a bit of air through, which fixes the problem. Once I’m done pumping, I put it in the bottle and put it in fringe. When it comes meal time, I simply take it out, attach the nipple and feed it to the baby. Ive even brought it with me to the movie theatres! Be aware though that they can leak sometimes if the collar isn’t screwed on tightly enough. Other than that though, they work great. They’re easy to clean too, I usually put them on the top rack of my dishwasher. The heat can cause the plastic to get cloudy over time, though so I try to wash it by hand whenever I can. A little bit of dish soap and hot water is all you need. A bottle brush cleaner is optional but highly recommended if you want to clean it more quickly and easily. To summarize, these bottles are convenient. I like them. In fact, we ended up getting another set for storage purposes so that we could switch between the different ones. You can find these at Target but they’re cheaper on Amazon - $12.85 for a pack of 3 (they go on sale sometimes).

I love anything medela. It’s what my daughter started on in the hospital and we ordered basically the exact same for home. The bottles are durable and had great nipple quality

Have been breastfeeding and supplementing formula using these bottles and Playtex Original Nursers for about a year because of low milk supply. Our son obviously prefers these bottles over the Playtex and would only drink for the Medela bottles for a while. We use these at home and the Playtex for daycare as these don't stack. Tried the Avent and Tommy Tippee Toe but they flowed way too fast and made him choke. He doesn't have nipple confusion and he still likes nursing. I delayed switching to the medium flow nipples until after he was six months old though and we are still using the medium flow at one year. He can't quite drink well from a cup yet, so we may shift to the fast flow soon. (Want to avoid "sippy" cups for dental reasons. Like the Avent Natural Cup.) We actually started him out on the Medela Calma before they were available in the US to correct his latch and biting. We switch to these as he progressed because they are easier to clean and assemble. These actually hold up to 6oz though it isn't marked, so we haven't had to buy the 8oz. bottles. The markings are very accurate, so you can add formula and just fill to appropriate marker. I went through and verified all of my bottles at the 2 oz.markings in the beginning and they were spot on. Found it helps to rinse them with _hot_ water after using them, especially the nipples and especially if you are tossing them in the dishwasher. Works well for storing both breast milk and formula and connects well to Pump In Style and Symphony breast pumps. The cap is leakproof which is important once you switch up to medium flow nipples. ::posted by Rob's wife

My first son was born prematurely, and though we nursed, I primarily pumped for him. Once your supply becomes established and you're pumping more than those 2oz bottles can hold, these bottles are the best. They fit right onto your pump, are great for milk storage while traveling, and can go straight into the freezer if you're not using milk storage bags. They can also withstand going right from freezer to hot water for thawing and warming the milk. For feeding, these bottles were great, though my son actually preferred a different brand most of the time. Also, because they have a solid lid separate from the nipple and ring, they make mixing calories into your breast milk (or straight up formula if that's what you're using) super easy with no accidental spraying from the nipple while shaking. These bottles are not only easy to use and clean, and can withstand extreme temp changes, they also survive heavy use. We used them for the duration of my pumping for my oldest, and then again when I had to primarily pump for our twins, who were also born prematurely. Our twins are 3-years old now, so I no longer pump, and they don't use bottles, but I still use these bottles when we're traveling to bring along sippy cup refills that'll fit right into my diaper bag. These bottles continue to be useful beyond our breast milk days!

Bought a bunch of slow feed bottles for my newborn who is primarily breastfed. However, none of them are slow enough - my baby kept choking, I’d have to stop feeding constantly to help her slow down and burp because the flow was too fast. I found these medela bottles and decided to give them a try. They are the only bottles my newborn can take without choking constantly. I love them and don’t use anything else at this point. Maybe when she’s older/ bigger I can use the other bottles, but these are the only true slow flow! Edit: after a few weeks the flow got too strong for my baby. I think after cleaning the nipples kind of stretched out. I had to move to Preemie nipples from Dr Browns which are much slower and haven’t gotten worn out yet.

Great starter set but not for long term use! When our newborn was drinking small amounts and I was learning how to pump using my Medela Pump in Style, this was a great set to use. My baby did well with the nipples (and the hospital gave me a bunch of disposable ones too that worked with the bottles) - for awhile. After a month or hardcore use, the 3 nipples in my first set broke down and cracked. I did have occasional issues with leakage from the nipple where it connected to the ring while he was feeding also. Unfortunately they don’t offer diverse nipple flow options, and you can’t even buy the nipples separately - I had to buy another bottle set to get more. I did that once but now that he’s over a month old and his intake has increased, we’re switching over to another bottle brand and using their bottles for storage also. I would say the bottles work great for storage and connect easily with the pump. The plastic has started to soften after being sterilized for a month. All in all, a good set to start out with, but don’t buy a bunch of these expecting to use them long-term. Very torn between 3 and 4 stars but I’ll give them 4 just due to the overall convenience of everything for a first time mom to figure out.

As a first time nursing mother I was having a difficult time with my son taking a bottle. I have spent a ridiculous amount of money on different types of bottle and nothing was working. I was getting a bit frustrated and overwhelmed because he would down right refuse any bottle I put in his mouth. I tried different bottles, different nipples, bottles that looked like a breast, and nothing seemed to work! I was ready to pull my hair out trying to figure out what I was going to do when I went back to work. My son would have to take a bottle in order to eat or go hungry and that really bothered me. I began to think of all my options and I remembered that my Medela breast pump came with four bottles and one nipple. One week before I went back to work I tried the Medela bottle and..............VOLIÀ.........he drank every last drop. I'm not to sure what it was about that bottle and nipple but he didn't fight it one bit!! These bottles are great and it is nice to have a few extra nipples and caps for each bottle. The bottles are 8 ounce bottles however, I pump in them and I can pump about 10 ounces in each bottle. The bottle is very full at that point but it is nice to know that a bit more than 8 ounces will fit in the bottle. I recommend these bottles to any nursing mother or any mother trying to find the right bottle for her little one.

I really liked the quality of these bottles. They had no issues with leaking. My baby didn't really like them so we had to move to a different brand, but that's definitely not a knock on the item itself, hence the five stars. Cleaning was as easy as sanitizing in the microwave and/or putting the parts in the dishwasher. The price was fair for the bottles.

medela Is Always Good, i use it for My all Kids. i start using it when i saw they were using it in hospital. trusted by them.

搾乳機には、1つしかついていなかったので、購入。カームよりも、乳首の方が吸いやすいようで、買って良かったです。

Une honte ... Se targuer de vendre des produits de qualité avec le prix qui va avec ! Pour des biberons dont les inscriptions sont peintes et disparaissent en même pas 15j. Lavé avec délicatesse, jamais frotté, j'ai même essayé d'écrire à nouveau au marqueur, inutile ... Un très mauvais achat.

Ho comprato questo set della Medela perché mi servivano: - dei Biberon grandi per la mia piccola compatibili con il tiralatte swing della Medela (già in mio possesso) - delle tettarelle con “medium flow” - dei cappucci da viaggio (per coprire le tettarelle) Alla consegna (sempre puntuale), la scatola conteneva: - 3 biberon da 250ml - 3 cappucci da viaggio - 3 tettarelle - 3 tappi. Posso confermare la bontà dei prodotti Medela, precisi nella misura delle quantità (provato con la bilancia al contrario di altri prodotti concorrenti), le tettarelle piacciono molto alla mia piccola, ed i tappi sono utili per conservare il latte. Non sono economicissimi, ma sono validi. Consigliati! Un consiglio alla Medela: sarebbe utile avare la possibilità di comprare solo i cappucci dai viaggio dei Biberon, perché anche con il Biberon da 150ml (quindi quando non è ancora necessario l’acquisto di biberon più grandi) si ha la necessità di coprire le tettarelle in caso di uscita con i piccoli.

Hadn't realised this was appropriate for 4 months old and above. We needed one for newborn, and we considered returning it, but it will be useful in the future afterall.
