Re: why can't i decide what bottles to register for?

As a BTDT mommy.... It's SO trial and error! We went through quite a few before finding the right bottle for DD.

We used the Born Free bottles for her.

I'm hoping DC #2 will take to them because I have ALOT of them and would love not to have to buy new ones!

register for a few different brands like maybe 2 or 3, this way you can see what the baby likes.

Yeah, register for those trial packs that have a few different sizes of one type of bottle. Then, go from there.
It is soooo overwhelming! I only registered for Tommee Tippee because the BRU sales person said to, Chat Icon Chat Icon

I'm also a BTDT mom and I would have written the same thing, except we used Dr. Browns. Def. try quite a few, you might think your baby will love a certain kind but end up hating them. Chat Icon

ITA. I tried Nuk, Tommee Tippee, and Dr. Browns and DS hated them (I BF and occasionally will give DS pumped milk). He does well with the Born Free. I would get individual bottles, not those big packages and try them first so you don't waste $$ on bottles that your DC will not use.

I have been doing the same thing. I finally just made a decision and bought avent last week. The top brands seem to be avent, dr. browns, and I liked born free as well.

I just went with Avent after researching and standing in the bottle aisle for 2 hours!
Good luck!

Re: why can't i decide what bottles to register for?

I went to register with my girlfriend yesterday and she helped me pick out about 4 different kinds of bottles- she said the baby will pick its favorite- also since I am breastfeeding- we went with the wider nipples rather than the thin ones- so thats something to consider too

As a BTDT mom, I used Dr. Browns for both boys, and never had any issues. They really are said to be the best out there. And, you don't have to worry about washing all of the parts - you just pop it into the dishwasher! Chat Icon
