    Hi

    I saw my HV today and she is happy that all is going so well with BF (Charlotte put on 10oz and Tom 9oz last week :happydance:) that I can start expressing and introducing some bottle feeds.

    Have you done this and if so which make of bottles/teats have you found worked best combined with the breast?

    Ta

    boots own dr brown type bottles are really really good... after i stopped combination i then went onto tommee tippee.

    i have 4 boots style dr browns bottles 2 of which have never been used and the other 2 only used 2 or 3 times if youd like them?

    I was lucky, Seren took to any teat. She had avent, tommee tippee and mothercare own, made no difference to her.

    Thanks everyone. I've ordered a Tommee Tippee set which should hopefully be here by the end of the week. Can't wait to give it a go and watch the proud Daddy feeding his little ones. :)
