Product Information

The wide nipple base causes some of the remaining milk to pool inside the nipple unless you’re feeding at the right angle.

Pure silicone will not change color; silicone with fillers, however, will show a white streak when twisted. It’s worth noting that some studies indicate that exposing silicone to temperatures above 300F or storing high fat foods in them for a long period of time can release siloxanes , which can be toxic to the reproductive and endocrine systems. The safest, non-toxic baby bottles are glass bottles and stainless steel. Silicone is less safe than glass or stainless steel but much safer than plastic. Some reviewers mention mold growing in the grooves where the internal plastic component meets with the silicone, so do make sure to give the bottles a good clean and let them dry thoroughly. In such, they are ideal for breastfed babies who are accustomed to the feel of mom’s breast and skin!With silicone, you always want to look for high-quality food-grade or medical-grade silicone without any fillers. Toxins Found in Plastic Baby Bottles

When I was growing up, most of the plastic products – including the bottles and dishes my mom used – contained Bisphenol A , or BPA.For more than a century, the experts in the Good Housekeeping Institute have educated consumers on making good product choices for their homes and families. In our Parenting Lab, we regularly review products that parents will want and need while raising their children, from the initial baby cribs and bassinets to toys they'll be using later such as swing sets. There are several methods for cleaning, but whichever you opt for, it's important to follow these guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control: This is also why using a microwave creates hot spots and is not generally recommended for warming breast milk or formula.

Silicone resists scratches that may trap harmful bacteria and is easily sanitized by boiling, keeping your breast milk or formula safe from contamination with pathogens. Easy latch or "accepted" by baby:"Latch" is the term for when a breastfeeding baby successfully gets on the breast to nurse. Bottle companies also talk about babies being able to latch onto their bottle nipple. Acceptance means a baby takes the bottle. Trust us, it's a huge disappointment when your baby goes on a bottle strike and refuses a brand or, when things are really dire, refuses any bottle. We appreciate that there are studies showing that many babies accept a certain bottle or nipple but, to be candid, only your own baby's preference is going to matter to you. While paint can be a concern, etched decorations are completely fine. What to Look for When Shopping for Non-Toxic Baby Bottles:Dr. Brown's bottles are easy to spot and have been a leading brand for several decades. Each has a distinctive anti-colic vent down the middle, which you can leave in or take out (hence the name "Options"). They come in this classic long, narrow shape as well as in short, wide versions and there are Dr. Brown's glass bottles too. Feeding items should be sanitized once a day if your infant is younger than 2 months, a preemie or health-compromised. As your baby grows older, a regular cleaning after each use is enough, with occasional sanitizing for peace of mind. I have personally tested this bottle to be lead-free. In addition, there is no paint on any of their bottles. Mason bottles are a silicone nipple that you can use on your mason jars. This allows you to reuse the mason jar long after the baby bottle days, making this the ultimate low-waste option. Price: Boon NURSH and Nanobébé are comparable in price and some of the most affordable options when it comes to silicone bottles. Comotomo and Tommee Tippee are also comparable in price and cost more.
