LansinohAnti-Colic Baby Bottles for Breastfeeding Babies, 5 Ounces, 3 Count, Includes 3 Slow Flow Nipples, Size S (Pack of 2)

As parents of two little ones, I'd like to say we are experts in appreciating different baby bottle designs and what works best for baby. Here's our criteria for a baby bottle and why the purple/redesigned Lansinoh mOmma natural wave bottle is 5 stars for us.Our Baby Bottle Criteria:====================First and foremost,BABY MUST LIKE IT!---------------------------------Munchkin Latch Bottle:Fails here because the nipple easily collapses. Just a very slight pressure with your finger and the nipple collapses. Now, imagine a moving baby with a slurping motion and this nipple collapses too easily.Avent Classic Bottle:We have a dozen of these from our firstborn. Unfortunately, our son just won't take these. We tried all of the nipple sizes from NB to level 3, he just won't take it. We had learned long ago to just get 1 bottle of each type, because different babies like different bottles, no rhyme or reason. Our daughter loved these.Avent Natural Flow bottle/nipple:He will actually finish a full bottle with this, but the bib and burp cloth will be drenched. The wider/flat design means he just drools and drools. Maybe good for others, but not for him.Dr. Brown:He was colic-y at first and this is the only bottle he would take without drooling. He loves them, we the parents despise them because of the cleaning - 6 parts to clean. But baby first and we endured this for 6-7 months until we discovered the Lansinoh mOmma *Natural Wave* bottles.Lansinoh mOmma *Natural Wave* bottle:I put asterisks around Natural Wave because Lansinoh has an older "Lansinoh mOmma" that is round in shape (and has orange coloring). The Lansinoh mOmma natural wave bottles look like regular bottles and are purple in coloring. So make sure you are reading about the right mOmma type!This is the only bottle in addition to the Dr. Brown that he would take. No drooling (we don't even need a bib or burp cloth), he finishes everything and most of all, it is so easy to clean! (just 4 parts more on that later)After baby approves, the next criteria is:HOW EASY IS IT TO CLEAN?==========================Munchkin Latch Bottle:This is pretty terrible, probably 1-star for cleaning along with Dr. Brown. The nipple is an accordion design on the bottom that is supposed to allow for easy movement (and probably why it collapses so easy under suction). Well, can you imagine trying to clean in between the grooves of an accordion? What a pain. Then, it has this blue-vent piece at the bottom of the bottle that you have to pop out and has small crevices that you can't really fit any bottle brush into, not even the Munchkin baby bottle brush set - hah! Furthermore, having this "hole" at the bottom is terrible if you soak your bottles with water because you always have to have the blue-vent piece in there.Avent Classic:Probably a 2 for cleaning because it has 5 parts. It has this blue ring that is annoying to clean. We put up with it for 2 years until we switch our daughter to cow milk.Avent Natural Flow:Probably a 4 for cleaning because it has 4 parts. The middle nipple-holder piece is designed just-so that it really tears up the sponges in your bottle brush.Dr. Brown:All parents despise cleaning them, yet baby-first and this is the bottle we used for 6-7 months until we discovered the new Lansinoh mOmma redesign. If I could give negative stars for cleaning a Dr. Brown bottle I would. All of the small intricate parts are a pain to clean, ask anyone, bleh.Lansinoh mOmma *Natural Wave* purple bottle:We love it, 5-stars for cleaning. 4 simple parts that is compatible with our bottle brush, nice wide design, easy to assemble, super easy to clean.OVERALL DESIGN THOUGHTS:===========================Munchkin Latch Bottle:Terrible. The lid completely covers the middle-nipple-holder part. This means after you have warmed up the bottle with hot water, you spin and spin the lid because there's no other surface to grab and it's slippery because it is wet. If you have soapy hands and are trying to unscrew the top, it will spin and spin, too. All of the other bottles, the lid rests-on or at least is designed such that you can easily grip and separate the cap/lid. Terrible to transport, must use a sealing disc, else it leaks.Avent Classic:Has a flat top. Easy to put down the cap/lid and won't roll away while adding formula, etc. Easy to grip, just don't like the extra "ring" that must be cleaned. Used this for 2 years with our first one. Smallest size is 4 ounces or 125 ML - this was too little and the 9 ounce was a big leap. 5 ounces would have been perfect for a long time. Easy to transport, no spills, nothing extra required.Avent Natural Flow:Same slippery lid issue as the Munchkin, but not as bad. Rolls around the counter if you take the cap/lid off. Smallest size is also 4 ounces/125 ml. Easy to transport, no spills, nothing extra required.Dr. Brown:The bottle we the parents despised cleaning the most, but we used it for 6-7 months because it DID help with a colic-y baby. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. Smallest size is 4 ounces /120 ml, but you CANNOT overfill, it will leak. We despise the 9-ounce version of Dr. Brown - too big for our bottle brush and bleh it actually makes cleaning worse if that was possible. Another terrible design is that you have to take the cap off to install a sealing-disc if you transport this! The last thing you want to do in a public place is have to take the cap off, etc exposing the milk to the elements. If you put this in an insulated cooler and the bottle is not kept vertical and tips over, you'll have milk everywhere.Lansinoh mOmma Natural Wave (the purple one, not the orange one):The lid is great, it has a completely flat side that is easy to put down and won't roll around. Our baby can drink an entire bottle with no bib or burp cloth. The smallest size is 5 ounces which is perfect for our baby's needs. Easy to transport, no spills, nothing extra required.Basically, all the benefits of the Dr. Brown, but easy to clean. Baby likes it and we don’t even use a bib or burp cloth when using this bottle!

This bottle is a game changer for grandma. We’ve been using the Dr Brown wide anti colic bottle since my DIL introduced bottle feeding to my 3 mo grandson and it’s been ok but it just wasn’t checking all the boxes, he would still struggle with latching, burping him was a challenge, feeding was not effortless on either side. This “purple bottle” as I like to call it, actually soothes him! He latches on perfectly, the nipple is soft and playable. The flow seems faster than the Dr B slow flow nipple but it may seem like that because the nipple is vented and also so much more playable than Dr B nipples. It’s definitely not too much for the baby, he actually starts nodding off to sleep when he’s getting full. I’m amazed and thankful! I’m still able to burp him, even though he’s half asleep, and his burps are less manly and don’t seem as forced or uncomfortable. I’m also relieved that it’s only 3 pieces to assemble. I’m ordering my second set now and will be sharing with the in-laws so we can all have a better feeding experience with the little one. For additional context, my grandson is primarily breast feeding, and was introduced to the bottle at 4 weeks old. My DIL went back to work part-time last month so bottle feeding is now a part time occurrence and happening 3 days a week. My son, her sister and mother and myself, share the babysitting duties. I really believe this bottle will help us all enjoy our time with the baby vs stressing over feeding time and bottle maintenance.

My 5th baby has tried avent, Dr. browns and lansinoh. She has a mild tongue and lip tie and the first two bottles did not work at all, she hated it. Lansinoh is the best, the nipple is way softer and baby loved it and latched right away! I breastfeed and she hasn’t gained enough weight so this was a huge relief to me that she will finally take a bottle to gain more weight. I agree with the other reviews that all baby’s mouths are different. I used lansinoh for my 4th baby too and she latched on right away.

Breastfeeding Momma out there, I know your struggle. I bought the most expensive bottles trying to train my baby so when I go back to work she is bottle trained. Nothing worked, but this one! We’re still working on it since today is the first day but I see a complete difference to the receptiveness of the bottle with this bottle. Don’t waste your money on the expensive bottles because I did that and it did not work. This is it! If your baby likes the bottle, but it’s too little of a flow you can always with a needle open up another hole or two to simulate the breast. I did that with mine. I don’t normally leave reviews, but I did here because I was desperate and I’m glad I decided to buy this one. I just wanna help another momma out there.

I’m gonna be very honest I’ve been breast-feeding for almost a month. My baby would not take no bottle so I said why not try these bottles the second that I got these bottles I washed them and sterilize them and the baby approved and these will be the only bottle of my baby take I recommend you if your breast-feeding try these bottles

I bought these bottles as a gift for my cousin’s 5-month-old daughter, who wouldn’t take her milk unless it was directly from her mom. They tried several other brands, but none of them worked. A friend recommended these, and it was the only way she would accept her milk

Nipple suctions closed every 30 seconds. Makes feedings take foreverContacted the manufacturer and they are sending me replacements!

I have tried a million bottles for my newborn and this one was the best one by far. The shape of the nipple is great for deep latching and the vent hole is good for getting ride of the air. The bottle holds a lot of milk and it was decently priced!
