bottles/reflux

[BethHx]

Are there any bottles that help with reflux?
I've used avent and tt with Izzy and she is less sick on tt, not sure if this is a coincidence.
Do certain bottles help babies to take in less wind etc? Or are their any known to help with reflux for sickness?

Dr browns are supposed to be the best bottles for wind and reflux. They wont cure reflux but may help. xxx

I've never herd any bottles are best for reflux only wind.
we use tommee tippee closer to nature bottles.

I was considering buying the mam bottles as I've heard they are meant to be good, will look into Dr browns now thanks x

We use Dr. brown's. it helps reduce wind a whole bunch... It just sucks to wash all the little parts! lol xx

Dr Browns are definitely the ones to try if you're having trouble. I presume you're using a thickener of some kind for the reflux - so make sure you're using the right size teat to go with it - i.e. a faster one. The anti-reflux formulas are pretty good, but I guess you can't use them.

We haven't found any difference for ours. We used playtex drop ins, plain store brand, and the dr. browns. They all lead to lots of spit up and gas. Hope you have better luck than we did.

I started off with MAM and they always leaked, we now use Tommee Tippee closer to nature, my LO is fine on these (she has silent reflux) but we have also bought 2 Dr Browns to help with feeds where she is most unsettled (not used them yet)

Have you tried feeding in a slightly upright position as this has helped with the reflux.

Dr browns was HORRIBLE for my baby. Her refulx is bad though. She screamed all night long for three days until I switched back to the avent. I believe the nipple was too fast for her and the avent number one teat works perfect. It takes her 15-20 min on a bottle but any faster and it hurts her. This is just our experience
