Tommee TippeeCloser to Nature Baby Bottle | Extra Slow Flow Breast-Like Nipple with Anti-Colic Valve (5oz, 1 Count)

I foster orphaned puppies, so this may get a little weird. However, they use the bottle just like a regular baby.If you are fostering med to large puppies that are not premies these may work for you as well as they did for me. I liked that the bottle was super small so I could pre measure the formula for all three of the puppies I was caring for and just made sure to keep the milk at the right temp. It definitely cut my feeding time in half, my hand felt less “tired”, and I was able to position the bottle better and pet the puppy at the same time.This bottle does come with a size 0 nipple, as it’s intended for a newborn baby. However, you can easily replace the nipples with the size your puppy prefers. I found that since the puppy is weaned by week 3.5-4 you don’t need a bigger bottle if you are measuring their serving separately. Their tummies are too small. Unless you are feeding a Great Dane… I haven’t had the “pleasure” to foster one. Honestly I hope I never have to, as much as I enjoy fostering it’s a sad thing.

Tommee Tippee is amazing. I have never been disappointed with any of their bottles. They are high quality and last a really long time. I saved ones from my four year and they still all have the markings on them. These ones are perfect for the first few months where they don't take too much at a feeding. For EBF Moms this was the first bottle my daughter took from Daddy at two weeks old and we never looked back. For formula feeding moms this bottle is easy to fill and scoop because of the wide opening. The nipples are durable. The price is always great for a higher end bottle and you will not be disappointed. If something is wrong with the nipple either make sure it is only hand washed or make sure you a re pinching the valve first...otherwise it is probably defective. Also they sell these bottles everywhere so if you ever run out you will have no problem finding them.Edit: So after using these for 3 weeks with my newborn I can safely say I will not be using these for awhile Not sure why but these and the Avent Naturals are the only bottles that my baby consistently chokes on. They are slow flow so I'm not sure why but she does really well with the Dr. Browns the Playtex and The Nuk. Moral of the story, not every baby will take well to every bottle so don't buy tons of one brand like I did.

So I was a comotomo girl. I bought our son all comotomos and spent a fortune on them. Our son DOES use and like the comotomo bottles BUT we had a few issues with them that we just weren’t happy with. They yellowed really quickly and the ml/oz are extremely hard to see as they are clear as well. When you have to measure out what you are serving and what your baby is eating, you don’t want the reading to be hard to see. I ran to the store and grabbed one of these bottles just to try. I loved the fact that it had a super slow flow for newborns and my son is preemie, so the slow flows on the other bottles were making him gag and choke as well as made a huge mess. These are PERFECT!! Easy to read, easy to heat, the flow is perfect and our son loves them. I ordered these the next day and this is all we use now.

I love that these bottles work with the formula dispensers that can be placed inside the bottles before using. This is great for being out and about and also for nighttime bottles (not need to be measuring out formula in the dark or running downstairs to make a bottle). They are easy to use and hold up well!

My baby suffers from constant spit up after every meal. These bottles were nicely designed, easy to clean, and a good size. I unfortunately did not see a lot of reduction in the spit up but bottles and babies are tricky and not a one size all.

I searched everywhere for a slower feeding nipple. Even my baby grand parent was trying to get nipples from the hospital where she works and nope, still too fast for my baby. So I decided to try this bramd and take a chance. We've been hooked every since. My baby is now going on 4 months, so I will continue this brand but in a higher nipple size.

I really like these bottles, my husbands aunt had a problem with them because she couldn’t hold the bottle with the same hand she was holding my son with, to have a free hand for something else... *eye roll* but I never had a problem with themThey’re easy to clean and he didn’t have a problem going from bottle to breast. The one thing I do not like is because the the shape sometimes some of the milk gets caught and you have to kind of swirl and tilt it so the milk falls down into the nipple. Not a huge issue but when other people feed him while watching him they never tilt it so some of the breastmilk gets wasted..never waste liquid gold!

I liked that these bottles were easy to clean and didn't have too many complicated parts. I didn't experience leaks from the bottles themselves, and the vent seemed to work fine (I followed instructions and made sure to give the vent a little pinch to open it up after washing). Unfortunately, my baby didn't really like the nipple shape - the base was just too wide and he couldn't get the hang of it, so he ended up dribbling milk everywhere. I think this is really baby-dependent and unfortunately there's no way to know ahead of time what they're going to like.
