Breastfeeding/Bottles Question

This may be a dumb question, but Im a little confused...

I plan to breast feed. I also plan to register for a breast pump. Do I still register for regular bottles? And still try 3 different brands of bottles? Do I put breast milk in regular bottles? I feel so silly to ask this, but do I have to buy special bottles if I plan to breast feed? Do I buy ones that are made for the breast pump I register for?

Can someone help me with info on this?

Thank you!

Re: Breastfeeding/Bottles Question

You can do both. Your pump will probably come with some little bottles that adapt to it, mine did- Medela. Then you can also pump and store the milk into disposable bags and transfer into regular bottles. People recommend registering for a few types of bottles because you don't really know what type of bottle your baby will respond best to.

I suggest calling your insurance company to see if the pump is covered. My insurance paid $575 in full to edgepark and the shipped the Medala freestyle.

In answer to the bottles, I registered for 3 different types.

Good luck
