Breastflow Bottles - anyone used them?

Hi there

Has anyone used Breastflow bottles?

Very keen to combine breast and bottle feeding this time round (struggled with breast feeding first time) and have read some good reviews but not sure how 'valid' they are

Anyone, got any experience of using them when combining breast and bottle?

Thanks

Thanks

Hi, yes I've used them and they are the only bottle DS would take (he is bf). They have this special valve that helps them to control the flow like they do on the breast. Of course he prefers the breast but when I leave him with someone these bottles are a good standby. I'd definitely recommend them

which brand is the best? there was a thread earlier on on MN reg the materilas the bottles made from, something has to do with polypropylene something, can't remember, the point was it was not the safest material to make botle with.

Any brands good?

Hi

MAM are def BPA free.

Tommee Tippee are bringing out a BPA free version end of January.

Avent I think have BPA version (not sure where you get these though) but there have been reported 'performance' problems from some of the mums on here.

Hope this helps
