Avent America Feeding Bottle

Pros: This is the ONLY bottle my breastfeeding baby will not refuse.
Cons: Leaking around the nipple may occur if the cap is twisted on too tightly.

The Avent Naturally line of feeding bottles are the best on the market...hands down!! After trying numerous other brands of bottles/nipples in preparation for my return to work at 3 months postpartum, I found the Avent nipples were the...

Pros: Lactation consultant recommended it, easy to fill
Cons: Felt awkward, our baby didn't like the nipple

We began using Avent America Feeding Bottles when our newborn baby was in the NICU. I wanted to nurse, but the doctors recommended formula until her jaundice was gone. The lactation consultant recommended Avent because, according to her, it's...

Pros: Extremely Versatile, Durable, Sturdy, Anti-colic, allows interchange of bottle and breast feeding
Cons: None

When I got pregnant, I started researching what I would need for the baby. While I knew I wanted to breastfeed, I also knew that I would be working full-time and so would need bottles. I initially wanted glass bottles instead of plastic, however, after ...

Pros: Most like breast, wide opening, convenient measuring, baby likes it!
Cons: A bit pricey

When I was pregnant, I didn't even need to decide on breastfeeding -- it was implied, to me, under the topic "having a baby". However, I needed to continue to work and go to school, too, and have baby bottle-fed with my expressed milk at daycare. Enter...

Pros: Great for those little hands.
Cons: Leaks.

Okay, maybe BA is a little strange for a title. It is however what my daughter called her Avent bottles. I had not been able to nurse my first child, and really wanted to nurse my second. I went out and picked out the bottles and breast pump I wanted...

Pros: The only bottle my baby will take, easy clean, easy hold
Cons: Leakage occasionally, larger bottle makes hard to fit places

I was exclusively breastfeeding my daughter for her first three months, when I decided I was going to take a few college classes over the summer. I decided that I would need to supplement using a bottle occasionally. We began an exhausting search for a...

Pros: Easy to clean, lots of coordinating parts available, wide nipple
Cons: Some leaks

Whether or not wide nipples are truly a revolution in baby bottle design, we parents seem to really like the idea of a nipple that looks more like the "real thing." Avent bottles are widely popular, despite their high price tag, and I can't think of a...

Pros: Wide neck makes them easy to clean, fits the Isis pump without an adaptor.
Cons: Only uses Avent nipples, caps, and rings so you're out of luck if you have a stockpile of other brands. Don't fit into many insulated bottle bags.

Although I am currently tandem-nursing a toddler and an infant, I do occasionally find myself needing a bottle for the younger baby. When it comes time for one of the grandmothers to watch our youngest daughter, we leave Avent bottles for...

Pros: still look like new
Cons: occasional leak (VERY occasional)

After 6 years of use with three kids, these bottles will in a few short months face their fourth and final assignment in this house: feeding my baby boy until he graduates to a zippy cup.

Bought in 1994 for my first child, in various sets like...

Pros: Easy flow, nipples shaped like breast nipples
Cons: Leaks and spills after washed several times

Although I really like Avent products in general, I am very disappointed in the Avent bottles. I like that the nipples are similar to breast nipples so that my daughter doesn't have nipple confusion when I switch from breast to bottle. I also like that...

Pros: Nice markings, high quality, good availability
Cons: Leaking, hard to latch on

I recently received some Avent 4 ounce bottles as a gift upon the birth of our baby girl. My intention had been to breastfeed and when that didn't work out as planned I was told these bottles would be the "next best thing". I had always...

Pros: Nipple most like mom's, clear silicone nipple, comfortable to hold, freezeable.
Cons: Measurements printed on, more expensive than other brands.

My first experience with the Avent bottle was when I purchased my Avent Isis breast pump (I highly recommend it, see my review!). Until that point I had been using bottles with the smaller nipples, and my baby was shooting half of the milk out the...

Pros: Easy to hold, easy to fill, easy to clean.
Cons: A bit spendy

While pregnant with my newborn son, I decided that this time around I would be using the Avent feeding bottles. I absolutely love them. They are designed so wonderfully, that it makes the entire process MUCH easier.

The Avent...

Pros: everything from durablity, no leaking, to being able to see the number of oz in the bottle
Cons: hard to hold when full , bulky

I had heard so many things about these bottles,from how they hold up over time, are big and bulky, leak, the tops dont fit on the other sizes. My personally I havent found a thing wrong with them, They have withstood my niece using them for 8 months...

Pros: Breastfed babies seem to take to them better than other bottles
Cons: Leaks, expensive, hard to find

As a nursing mother, I wanted a bottle that would be least likely to cause nipple confusion. I researched on the web and AOL message boards for quite a while before choosing to go with Avent bottles.

I had the Avent Isis breast pump, and...
